U+0EB3 "ຳ" Lao Vowel Sign Am is a combining mark used in the Lao script to represent the vowel sound /am/. It is positioned beneath a consonant, typically modifying the syllable to produce the "am" sound, as in the word for "thought" (ຄຳ). This character is distinct from the similar-looking Thai vowel sign and is essential for accurately writing and reading standard Lao text, as it often distinguishes meaning between otherwise identical words.
