Medial-conjunct formers :
{yhiñ-byæÑ:}
Lesson 33 -
{na.hswè:}
Lesson 34 -
{ma.hswè:}
Lesson 35 - {ya.ping.}
- the only medial
Lesson 36 - {ra.ric}
- disyllabic and is not a medial as in
Bur-Myan. It is similar to Skt-Myan
{ra.hswè:}. However, since
Mon-Myan r1c5,
, is written as a {ra.hswè:}
it is a point of confusion.
Lesson 37 - {la.hswè:}
Lesson 38 - {wa.hswè:}
UKT notes
Romabama transcription does not hold
for for Mon-Myan. Just concentrate on what you hear.

{yhiñ-byæÑ:}- UKT 140528, 160818
See NMT Chapter 4: Medial-conjunct formers or
• Fundamentals of Mon Speech & Script (in Bur-Myan), by Naing Maung Toe, www.monlibrary.com, Yangon, 2007 (Romabama may be applicable in NMT)
- MonMyan-NMgToe-Mon-Bur<Ô> / bkp<Ô> (link chk 160809)
(frequently need to refer to {nga.hswè:} on p047/pdf051)
There are 11 medial-conjuncts (Spk-all gives
some) compared to 5 in Bur-Myan.
Except for
{ya.ping.} which is truly monosyllabic,
the others sound disyllabic to my ears.
When pronounced as a disyllable, the
first syllable becomes very light, i.e.
its nuclear becomes a schwa /ə/
I am finding some variations among different font-makers, and for the time being I am coming up with a compromise Lakkwak -- lakkwak.gif (link chk 160814). I hope it will be acceptable to all.
There are many fine examples of syllables in NMT-pdf. Unfortunately, there is no one yet to pronounce them -- however NMT gives Bur-Myan pronunciations which are no match for actual sound.

UKT 130422: There is only sound for
the caption, but none for exercise
on the internet.
UKT 140519, 160815: NMT gives two examples
with Bur-Myan pronunciations:
- Mon representation:
-
Bur pronunciation:
-
gloss: 'being smooth'
- Mon representation:
- Bur pronunciation:
-
gloss: 'female friend' (not girl-friend)
The hood of {ra.ric}
has been shortened in Romabama for
both Bur-Myan & Mon-Myan to
differentiate from the highly rhotic
Skt-Myan (equivalent of Skt-Dev) vowel.
Remember, Romabama is intended for
Bur-Eng-Pal-Skt speeches in
Myanmar-IPA-Devanagari scripts. I am
testing Romabama with Mon-Myan. So far,
as Romabama transcription - not
transliteration - is based on Bur-Myan
phonology, it is not applicable to
Mon-Myan. I need to come up with another
transcription for Mon-Myan based on
Mon-Myan phonology. At present since
I can not speak Mon-Myan, I am in no
position to accomplish what I would
like to see.
