Usage notes

  • The letter (ra) is officially obsolete yet remains in widespread use. Words spelled with ຣ all have an equivalent spelled with ລ which is nominally more official or standard. Which is more popular for a given Lao word is partly arbitrary.
  • Other spellings exist in dictionaries and are due to borrowing from English, yet they are seldom used: ຍຸໂຣບ (nyu rōp), ຍູໂລບ (nyū lōp), ຢຸຣົບ (yu rop). ຢຸໂຣບ (yu rōp).
