Article 4  Zhuang writing system has 108 syllable finals. They are composed of 6 vowels “a（the short a[a] represented by “ae”）、o（the short o[o] represented by “oe”）、e、i、u、w” and the ones combining by the letters of vowels and the other sound endings. The vowels and consonants qualifying to fit in the slots of sound endings are: i、u、w、m、n、ng、p、t、k、b、d、g. The spellings of Zhuang final sounds are listed as following:   word group with unchecked final single- vowel syllable final without consonant ending a  (ae) e     i       o  (oe)  u       w compound syllable final with final -i with final -u with final -w ai  ae   ei               oi  ui       wi au  aeu  eu   iu     ou  aw nasal syllable final with final -m with final -n withn final -g am  aem  em  iem  im  om  oem  uem  um an  aen  en  ien  in  on  oen  uen  un wen wn ang aeng eng ieng ing ong oeng ueng ung       wng word group with checked syllable final   high tone group with final -p with final -t with final -k ap  aep  ep  iep  ip  op  oep  uep  up at  aet  et  iet  it  ot  oet  uet  ut  wet wt ak  aek  ek  iek  ik  ok  oek  uek  uk      wk low tone group With final -b with final -d with final -g ab  aeb  eb  ieb  ib  ob  oeb  ueb  ub ad  aed  ed  ied  id  od  oed  ued  ud  wed wd ag  aeg  eg  ieg  ig  og  oeg  ueg  ug      wg   Note: ① For the letter-joined compound“ae” and “oe”, each of them is not qualified to sit in the position of a syllable final, here, “ae”represents the short a[a], and “oe” represents the short o[o]. For saving the space of a letter, the sound part of “aei” is represented by “ae”. ② The “e” following the final sounds of “i、u、w” indicates it is the glides of the long vowels of “i、u、w”. Alternatively, some Zhuang regions just treat them as long vowels while reading. Article 5  Zhuang writing system adopts the measure of having some intonations marked to express its whole tone system. Each of the whole words with intonation has only been presenting with its proper tone category, and the variable tone category for each of them is not to be marked. The word group with open syllable final  of Zhuang language has 6 tones, besides the tone 1 unmarked, the other tones are marked with the letter “z、j、x、q、h” respectively; the word group with checked syllable final has 2 tones, and is represented by 2 groups of sound ending, namely the high tone group with the consonant coda “p、t、k” and the low tone group with the consonant coda “b、d、g”. The pronunciation for them are listed as following:   tone category measure of representation tone value example   word group with unchecked final Tone 1 Tone 2 Tone 3 Tone 4 Tone 5 Tone 6 unmarked mid-rising son教 following by “z” low-falling mwngz你 following by “j” high-level hwnj上 following by “x” mid-falling max马 following by “q” high-rising gvaq过 following by “h” mid-level dah河 word group with checked syllable final   high tone group short vowel with the consonant ending “p、t、k” high-level daep肝 long vowel （ditto） high-rising dap塔 low tone group short vowel with the consonant ending “b、d、g” mid-level daeb叠 long vowel （ditto） mid-level gab挟     Article 6  The sequence to transliterate the Zhuang syllables is: initial consonant－syllable final－tone mark.
