៉ muusiketoan (mouse teeth/batoc piir diacritic) combined with any top vowels ិ ី ឹ ឺ ើ gets the bok choeng (collision foot) ុ below the consonant or subscript coeng. Not every font renders this correctly.

This is spelled incorrectly because ស is already a-series consonant and it doesn’t get modified by ៉, only by ៊ to make ស៊-so + any top vowel ិ ី ឹ ឺ ើ also causes the Triisap to shift into the ុ form.

ឫស្សី - bamboo

A better example you can use for ឬ (or)

Sorry to take so long to get around to this. Thanks for spotting it. Fixed.

I wasn't sure what you were suggesting here: i think you mean replace ឫស្សី with ឬ ? I do have that example in the detail for ឬ (click on the word, then on the name for ឬ). I just chose the longer example because it shows that it does also occur as part of a word. Is there a reason you suggest 'or' rather than 'bamboo'?

I suggested to use ឬ as an example for “or” because that’s one of the few uses for it as an independent vowel in Khmer language. It might be more extensively used in other languages like Pali or Sanskrit. I know it’s used rarely as a subscript as well (ហ្ឬទ័យ), but only for Sanskrit and Pali words. ឫស្សី is the correctly spelling for “bamboo” in Khmer.
