{än}

UKT: Pali-Myanmar (Pal-Myan) has only short and long vowels, whereas Bur-Myan (Burmese speech written in Myanmar script) has three registers: the creak, the modal, and the emphatic. For this vowel, there are only two: {än.}, {än} - the emphatic is missing. Remember, UPMT The Student's Pali-English Dictionary is in Pal-Lat (Pali speech written in Latin script.). Note: I do not say 'English' script because English is spoken and it is written in Latin script which some would say is the "Roman" script. What they spoke in Ancient Rome is the Roman speech: it is written in Latin script - Roman-Latin.
Another point of confusion is due to the diacritics. Do not get confused with {king:si:} as in {ïn~þa.} . - UKT111126

aṁsaṁsa, - m. (√as) a portion of a part.

{än-þa}
• aṁsa, mn. (√am) the shoulder. - UPMT-PED001
• aŋsa - PTS

If the PTS «aŋ» had meant a {nga.þût}, we would get {ïn~þa.}. UHS spells it with {þé:þé:ting}: {än-þa}. However, it appears that by «aŋ», PTS means a {þé:þé:ting}. Then our problem is to find how to represent a {nga.þût} {king:si:}. Down below, we find «anka». Since its equivalent is {ïn~ka.}, PTS is representing {nga.þût} {king:si:} with «an». This leads us to the question of representation of {na.þût}. See {ûn~ta.}. PTS has spelled this word as «anta», placing it in the same class as {king:si:}. That brings us back to «aŋ». The problem is IPA has used /ŋ/ to represent the velar nasal and I hold that {þé:þé:ting} is not velar: it has no definite POA (Place of Articulation)! Its pronunciation is /ʌn/ and not /ɪn/. I am waiting for input from my peers. -- UKT111213
