A mid-class consonant. It says d at the start of a syllable and -t at the end. 14th in the alphabet, 27th of the 44 to learn here. You will meet it almost never.
2 of the 44 letters open a syllable with d, so the sound on its own will never tell you which one you are looking at. 18 letters close one with -t, and ฎ is among them.
Mid class is the only class that takes all four tone marks, so ฎ can be written at any of the five tones. Take the live vowel away and it drops to low whether the vowel was short or long.
The same letter is two sounds: ฎ is d at the front of a syllable and -t at the back. Of the 4,271 words in this app it opens 1, sits inside 34 and closes 1.
Position here is orthographic — where the letter is written, not where it is said. The five leading vowels เ แ โ ใ ไ are skipped when deciding what comes first, so ไก่ counts as a word that starts with ก.
A word list is a specimen jar. 1 of the 221 sentences and phrases in this app are written with ฎ somewhere in them — here is one, shortest first, with every ฎ lit.
ฎ is one of 9 mid-class consonants. That membership is the single fact the ladder in 02 is built on — change the class and every tone in it changes. Here they all are, with ฎ lit among them.
