Bur-Myan and Mon-Myan are different languages.
Though the same akshara is used, the pronunciations are radically different.

UKT 151013: I will be using the abbreviation ipa  - "is pronounced as" - to show the pronunciation whenever necessary. Take note that Haswell's transcription reflects the Mon-Myan pronunciation of consonants, e.g.

Remember Mon-Myan pronunciation of KTP consonants:
column-wise classified as: tenuis, voiceless, voiced, deep-H, nasal

row#1 ipa {ka.} {hka.} {ké}/{gé} {hké} {gné} - Listen: bk-cndl-Mon1<))
row#4 ipa {ta.}  {hta.} {té}/{dé}  {hté}  {né} - - Listen: bk-cndl-Mon4<))
row#5 ipa {pa.} {hpa.} {pé}/{bé} {hpé} {mé} - Listen: bk-cndl-Mon5<))

As in Eng-Lat, é & è are pronounced indistinctly in Mon-Myan.
In Bur-Myan the two are differentiated as é & èý - by addition of {ý}.

Doggie's Tale

Mnemonic The Doggie Tale: 
Little doggie cringe in fear -- ŋ (velar),
  Seeing Ella's flapping ears -- ɲ (palatal)
  And, the Shepard's hanging rear -- ɳ (retroflex).
Doggie so sad he can't get it out
  What's that Kasha क्ष when there's a Kha ख ?
  And when there's Jana ज्ञ what I am to do with Jha झ?

Note to digitizer: you can copy and paste the following,
or you can use the old ASCII letters which you can type from the keyboard:
