Cham Jawi is a variant of the Jawi adaptation of the Arabic script used to write the Cham language.^{[1] [2] [3]}

Differences from Malay Jawi

In Cham Jawi, additional characters for nasalised stops not found in the Malay Jawi alphabet have been added:

• ۑ (ny)
• څ (nj)
• ڎ (nd)

Maintaining consistency in the use of three-dot letters for nasal stop consonants, the letter ڤ has been reassigned to the sound mb, and the letter ف reassigned to the sound p. (The f of Malay is absent in Cham.)

Voiceless aspirate consonants are represented as digraphs using ح:

• كح (kh)
• چح (ch)
• تح (th)
• فح (ph)

Voiced aspirate consonants are represented as digraphs using ه:

• ڬه (gh)
• جه (jh)
• ده (dh)
• به (bh)

The vowel e is distinguished from i, written as اْ in medial and final positions. (This vowel does not occur initially.) The vowel é is written initially with اْ and finally as يْ. (This vowel does not occur medially.) The vowel o is distinguished from u with the letter ۋ. Initial ai is distinguished from initial i by using the letter ع, as عاي. The vowel â is represented as اۛ.^[1]
