เหงาๆ
The เ is the first half of 'ao'. The character เ is one of several that has to be at the start of a syllable (or word).
The ห is just there to change the tone from neutral to rising.
The ง is the 'ng'
The า is the second half of 'ao'.
The first character pronounced in this case is the third one.
This word is sorted in the dictionary under ห
Hi René,
This is very interesting!
Never thought that letters could be arranged in this way!
Thank you for the excellent example ngao-ngao.
