When learning a new language, it is crucial to start with its alphabet. The Odia alphabet consists of 13 vowels and 41 consonants. This lesson will focus on the Odia vowels and their pronunciation.
Odia Vowels
Vowels are the building blocks of any language. A vowel is a speech sound produced by the vocal cords without a constriction or closure of the vocal tract. In Odia language, there are 13 vowels. They are:
Odia | Pronunciation | English Translation |
---|---|---|
ଅ | a | a |
ଆ | aa | aa |
ଇ | i | i |
ଈ | ii | ii |
ଉ | u | u |
ଊ | uu | uu |
ଏ | e | e |
ଐ | ai | ai |
ଓ | o | o |
ଔ | au | au |
ଋ | ri | ri |
ଌ | li | li |
ଅଁ | am | nasal a |
