I know nothing of Thai but in Hindi (devanagari) ignoring standalone vowels (अ a) they come after a consonant to modify its pronunciation, regardless of whether the mark is written predominantly before or after or below. E.g. for the consonant k क् (the mark below there indicates no vowel yet):
क ka (kuh)
का kā (kaa)
कि ki (kih)
की kī (kee)
के ke (kay)
कै kai (keh)
को ko (koh)
कौ kau (kaw)
कु ku (koo)
कू kū (kooo)
I'm not sure about the handwriting stroke order of कि, but digitally you write ki, not ik (because that would be इक - an independent i vowel followed by a ka - 'a' being implicit at the end).
- dhosek 2y agoThai, as a result of its legacy encoding has you write, e,g., โ + อ = โอ even though the vowel โ is pronounced after the consonant อ. And in cases where vowel markings surround the consonant, โ◌ะ, it’s entered as three separate glyphs in display order.
