The pronunciation of some sounds varies, and below are listed some letters whose sounds may be confused. The alternative should be checked if a word is not found in the vocabulary.

"h" is often omitted, and if a word beginning with a vowel is not found the word should be checked under "h".

"kh" can be heard as "k".

"p" can be heard as "f" or vice versa.

"r" [should have a dot below] can be heard as "d" [should have a dot below].
