Ndebe · Ńdébé
ụ
The vowel ụ on its own — a syllable of the Ndebe syllabary with no consonant body, which the script writes with its own character rather than as a body with the consonant left off.
The three tones
Tone is part of the character in Ndebe, not a mark added to it, so one syllable is written three different ways. These are the same shape family — the character on the left in each box is the one to learn first, and it is the form the chart shows.
