Comments:

Khasi is spoken in Assam, Khasi-Jaintia Hills,
Jammu, Kashmir, Manipur, Punjba, Uttar Pradesh, West
Bengal in India and also in Bangaldesh.
All vowels occur short and long but long vowels
are limited in distribution. /ia/ patterns like a short
vowel, /ie, uo/ like long vowels. Final /w/ and /j/
exclude any other final consonant and hence are treated as
consonantal offglides rather than as constituents of
diphthongs.
