ALA-LC Tibetan Romanization Table, 2015 version — the Wylie system. Every base consonant carries the inherent vowel a (Note 2); stacked consonants romanize as the consonant sequence with the implicit a of the final member; the thirteen vowel signs include the vocalic r and l and the a-chung lengthening (ā); the ʼa chung (འ) romanizes as the alif. Non-Tibetan retroflex and aspirate extensions per the special-letter section. Transcribed from the loc.gov document.
