Burmese Romanization Table (2011)
alalc-mya-Mymr-Latn-2011 ALA-LC Burmese Romanization Table, 2011 version. Consonants carry the Indic values with the inherent vowel a (Devanagari-style); the asa/virama closes the syllable with an ʻ; medials y r v h romanize between the consonant and its vowel in the order y-or-r, then v, then h; anusvara ṃ; the dot-below and visarga tone marks romanize ʹ and ʺ. Modified conjunct ligatures are visual only — Unicode text spells the sequences, so no special rows are needed. Transcribed from the loc.gov document's text layer.
