short [e]

Writing

Thais add อ to write stand-alone vowels:

เอ็-

Info: อ is the "silent consonant", it has no sound. It is used when writing vowels as a placeholder for other consonants.

เอ็- needs to be followed by a closing consonant.

Sample words:

เ ็ is a Thai vowel sound, consisting of multiple Thai letters.

Both เอ็- and เ ็ are correct. อ is the "silent consonant", it has no sound. It is used when teaching vowels as a placeholder for other consonants.
