Ligatures with U

[edit]

The diacritic for U used by Mandailing, Pakpak, Simalungun, and Toba can form ligatures with its base character:

Batak Script Description
A  + -U A  a + -u = u
A  + -U U a + -u = u (Simalungun)
Ha  + -U Hu  ha + -u = hu (Mandailing)
Ha  + -U Hu  ha + -u = hu (Simalungun)
Ha  + -U Hu  ha + -u = hu
Ka  + -U Ku  ka + -u = ku (Mandailing)
Ba  + -U Bu  ba + -u = bu
P  + -U Pu  pa + -u = pu (Mandailing)
Pa  + -U Pu  pa + -u = pu (Pakpak, Toba)
Pa  + -U Pu  pa + -u = pu (Simalungun)
Na  + -U Nu  na + -u = nu
Na  + -U Nu  na + -u = nu (Mandailing)
Wa  + -U Wu  wa + -u = wu (Mandailing, Toba)
Wa  + -U Wu  wa + -u = wu (Pakpak, Toba)
Wa  + -U Wu  wa + -u = wu (Simalungun)
Ga  + -U Gu  ga + -u = gu
Ga  + -U Gu  ga + -u = gu (Simalungun)
Ja  + -U Ju  ja + -u = ju
Batak Script Description
Da  + -U Du  da + -u = du
Ra  + -U Ru  ra + -u = ru
Ra  + -U Ru  ra + -u = ru (Simalungun)
Ma  + -U Mu  ma + -u = mu
Ma  + -U Mu  ma + -u = mu (Simalungun)
Ta  + -U Tu  ta + -u = tu
Ta  + -U Tu  ta + -u = tu
Sa  + -U Su  sa + -u = su (Pakpak)
Sa  + -U Su  sa + -u = su (Mandailing)
Sa  + -U Su  sa + -u = su (Mandailing)
Sa  + -U Su  sa + -u = su (Simalungun)
Ya  + -U Yu  ya + -u = yu
Ya  + -U Yu  ya + -u = yu (Simalungun)
Nga  + -U Ngu  nga + -u = ngu
La  + -U Lu  la + -u = lu
La  + -U Lu  la + -u = lu (Simalungun)
Nya  + -U Nyu  nya + -u = nyu
Ca  + -U Cu  ca + -u = cu (Mandailing)

Tompi

[edit]

In Mandailing, the diacritic tompi can be used to change the sound of some characters:

ha  + tompi ka sa  + tompi ca
Ha  + tompi A  Ha  + tompi A 
Ha  + tompi A 

Placement of diacritics for Ng and H

[edit]

The diacritics for Ng (-Ng) and H (-H) are usually written above spacing vowel diacritics instead of above the base character.
Examples: Ping ping, Pong pong, Peh peh, and Pih pih.

Diacritic reordering for closed syllables

[edit]

Vowel diacritics are reordered for closed syllables (that is, syllables where the final consonant has no vowel). Consonants with no vowel are marked by the Batak pangolat or panongonan diacritic, depending on the language. When they are used for a closed syllable (like "tip"), both the vowel diacritic and the pangolat or panongonan are written at the end of the syllable.

Examples of closed syllables using pangolat:

ta  +  vowel  +  pa  +  pangolat  =  syllable
Ta + Pa + pangolat = Tap
ta + pa + pangolat = tap
Ta + -E + Pa + pangolat = Tep
ta + e + pa + pangolat = tep
Ta + -E + Pa + pangolat = Tep
ta + e + pa + pangolat = tep
Ta + -I + Pa + pangolat = Tip
ta + i + pa + pangolat = tip
Ta + -O + Pa + pangolat = Top
ta + o + pa + pangolat = top
Ta + -U + Pa + pangolat = Tup
ta + u + pa + pangolat = tup

Consonants

[edit]

The order reflects the traditional order of the letters of the Tibetan script, to which they correspond. As is the case with Tibetan and other Brahmic scripts, consonants have an inherent [a] vowel sound attached to them in non-final positions when no other vowel sign is present (e.g. the letterka with no attached vowel represents the syllable ka, but with an appended vowel i represents the syllable ki).

There are a few extra consonants used to represent sounds not found in Tibetan. These are either derived from other Tibetan base consonants or formed by combining an base consonant a with the semi-vowel letter WA. For example, xa is derived from Tibetan ཁྭ khwa.

  1. ^ This letter is used to separate a syllable that starts with a vowel from a preceding syllable that ends in a vowel.
  2. ^ Initially in words that now have null initials.

Vowels

[edit]

Initial semi-vowels, diphthongs and digraphs must be attached to the null base consonant. As there is no sign for the vowel a, which is implicit in an initial base consonant with no attached vowel sign, words that start with an a vowel must begin with a null base consonant letter. In Chinese, and rarely Mongolian, another null base consonant, ⟨ꡐ⟩, -a, may be found before initial vowels.

One difference from the Tibetan script, in which a vowel must always be attached to a base consonant, is that in ʼPhags-pa, an initial vowel other than a can appear without a base consonant when it is not the first element in a diphthong or a digraph. ⟨◌ꡦ⟩, ee represents a vowel that does not occur in Tibetan, and may be derived from the Tibetan vowel sign ⟨ ཻ⟩. It is never found in an initial position.

Vowels and example syllables with null consonant ⟨ꡝ⟩ and with ⟨ꡀ⟩, k.

Shilin Guangji

[edit]

During the Yuan dynasty, Chen Yuanjing employed ʼPhagspa as a kind of precursor to modern pinyin, using it to annotate the Chinese text of his encyclopedia, the Shilin Guangji, (simplified Chinese: 事林广记; traditional Chinese: 事林廣記, Phags-pa: ꡎꡗ ꡂꡨ ꡛꡞꡃ). His transcriptions include the Hundred family surnames (Chinese: 百家姓).[1]
