Because there are no spaces or other word dividers, it is difficult to detect boundaries algorithmically.
KHMER FONT WORD CODE
Word-final consonant sounds (typically 8 consonants and characters) use ordinary code points without an inherent vowel. Subjoined forms are created using an invisible coeng character. Clusters are indicated by stacked consonants. Word-internal clusters are very common at the beginning of a word, but clusters also occur medially in multisyllable words, and occasionally at the end of a word (though the 2nd consonant at the word end is usually not pronounced). Other factors may also affect the sound, such as stress, vowel harmony, and diacritics. Khmer has more vowel sounds than ways to write them, so the choice of consonant class indicates different sounds for the same written vowel. Spaces are used as phrase separators.Įach onset consonant is associated with a high or low class related to pronunciation (there is no tone). Words are not separated by spaces, however words may be separated by ZWSP. Khmer text runs left to right in horizontal lines. See the table to the right for a brief overview of features for the modern Khmer orthography. The sound following a consonant can be modified by attaching vowel signs to the consonant when writing. like most Brahmi-influenced scripts, each consonant carries with it an inherent vowel. Sources: Scriptsource, Wikipedia, Unicode13 p653 The Thai and Lao scripts are descended from an older form of the Khmer script. The modern Khmer script differs somewhat from precedent forms seen on the inscriptions of the ruins of Angkor. The script is thought to be descended from the Brahmi Pallava script, and the Khmer literary tradition dates back to the 7th century. It is also used to write Pali in the Buddhist liturgy of Cambodia and Thailand. It is currently in widespread use, although it is estimated that 35% of the Khmer-speaking population aged 15 and over are illiterate in the script. The Khmer script is used for writing the official language of Cambodia, and sometimes for Cambodian minority languages, such as Tampuan, Krung, Cham, Brao and Mnong.
