Abstract
In Sindhi Language, Cluster of sounds is always composed of three sounds: two consonant and one vowel. Consonants available in that cluster are again of two types; 1. Vowel consonant 2. Vowel-less consonant Once again that vowel-less consonant has two possibili$es according to its func$on in the cluster. Either it will make its unison with earlier immediate vowel consonant or it will make unison with coming forth vowel consonant. For instance: 1. Il’mu ُم  گهِ نۡ  $‘Ghin and مَتَ ُب tabu’Mak, مَطۡ ل ُب labu’Mat,ِ عل In these words, the vowel-less consonants ‘L, T, L and N’( ,ڪ, ط, ل and (نhave made unison with earlier short vowel consonants ‘I, M, M and less-Vowelِ علۡ, مَطۡ , مَ " ِ , گ نۡ .sounds of clusters form toِ گ ہ and ع  , مَ, مَ ‘gh consonants used in these examples can be named ‘Cluster Closing Vowelless Consonants’; because, those vowel-less consonants close the respec- $ve clusters. 2. Pyar , ُ ار-پ dhyan ڌُ , ان3 ddukhyo يو9ُڏ and Sitra َ >سِ In these words, the vowel-less consonants ‘p, dh, dd and t’ ک, ڌ, پ and ٽ have made unison with coming long or short vowel consonants ‘ya, ya, yo, ra’ يو, ا3 ,ا3 and َر to form cluster of sounds. َرE ,کيو, ا3ڌ, ا-پ Vowel-less consonants used in these examples can be named ‘Cluster Opening vowelless Consonants’; because, those vowel-less consonants open the respec- $ve clusters.
