| | In the examples that follow, consonants pronounced without the inherent vowel are depicted with a virama. | | | Thus the virama is the trigger for any complex glyph shaping that may be applied to a conjunct by the font or rendering algorithms. | | | Where consonants appear together without intervening vowels special steps need to be taken to indicate that the inherent vowels have disappeared. |

| | Metathesis is the phenomenon whereby two sounds that appear in a particular order in one form of a word occur in the reverse order in a related form of the word. | | | For example, in the Austronesian language Leti, the linear ordering of the final consonant and vowel of a word can differ depending on a number of factors. | | | While metathesis is not as common as other processes affecting sounds in language, such as assimilation or deletion, it does, nonetheless, occur as a regular phonological process in synchronic systems in a wide range of languages. |
