Leke script

The Leke script, previously known as Karen Chicken Scratch script, is an abugida used to write the Pwo Karen language and Sgaw language in Burma (Myanmar) and Thailand. It has 25 consonants, 17 vowels and 3 tones. The script also has a unique set of numerals and punctuation, such as a full stop (period) and a comma.

In the traditional reading style most of the words the pronunciation came first then spelling came later. For example: (pronoun first School the “s.c.h.o.o.l” then repeat the same pronoun school again). In the modern Leke script, consonants come first, then the vowels follow. In writing system consonant always came first then following by vowels and tones. But just only two vowels have to apply first then consonant have to write down latter (just only for if you writing with hand). In the case of Leke script consonants are written horizontally from left to right, with vowels arranged below, above, to the left or to the right or combination of two vowels positions below of the consonants.
