Comments:

Brao is spoken in an area of North-Eastern
Cambodia and adjoining areas of Laos. Keller (1976)
provides details of the pronunciation of the symbols used
in a 'practical orthography' but no other information on
the phonology. Sequences of two like vowels represent
long vowels; all may appear long. Sequences of unlike
vowels may be limited but the limits are not specified.
Approximants may follow long vowels.
