<p>Sunuwar uses 6 ordinary spacing letters to write vowel sounds.</p>

<p>In Sikkim, the letter <span class="hx">11BC8</span> is normally used to represent the sound <span class="ipa">ə</span> at the beginning of a word or after a vowel, but not after a consonant, since it represents the sound of the inherent vowel.

<p>Although the letter <span class="hx">11BD6</span> was initially introduced to represent the long <span class="ipa"></span> sound, it's use is sometimes inconsistent and may represent a shorter sound.</p>
