5. Final Consonants

.1

Only the following ten: ga nga da na ba ma 'a ra la sa (and the four with affixed sa, v. 5.5) occur at the end of a syllable.

.2

It must be observed, that ga da ba as finals are never pronounced like the English g, d, b in leg, bad, cab, but are transformed differently in the different provinces. In Ladak they sound like k, t, p e.g. sog = sock, god = got, thob = top.
