Attention: Please note that the letters w
.{ and y denote [ and V respectively, in Tamil. Also note that y sounds almost like Z , y like Z , and
so on. The consonant-cluster d{ is pronounced somewhere between d{ and
d{. It is, however, colloquially acceptable to pronounce the clusters y and
d{ as _{ and d{, respectively.
