| 𐑤 | 𐑮 |
|---|---|
| loll | roar |
These are also the first letters of the words "left" and "right", and you see that they point left and right as well. That should help you to remember them.
Although you can make 𐑮 by turning 𐑤 around, both these sounds are voiced. The rule about voiced and unvoiced pairs only applies when one letter is tall and the other is deep.
Now you can write:
| 𐑤𐑴 | "low", or "lo!" | |
| 𐑮𐑴 | "row" | |
| 𐑮𐑴𐑤 | "roll", or "role" | |
| 𐑤𐑴𐑛 | "load" | |
| 𐑮𐑴𐑑 | "wrote" |
