In ''The Unicode Standard, Version 11.0'' (p. 661). Mountain View, CA: Unicode Consortium.</ref> Cham was one of the first scripts to develop from the [[Pallava script]], this happened in the mid 350s CE. It came to Southeast Asia as part of the expansion of [[Hinduism]] and [[Buddhism]].

After this, inscriptions alternate between Sanskrit and the Cham language of the times.<ref name="book3">Claude, Jacques. "The Use of Sanskrit in the Khmer and Cham Inscriptions." In Sanskrit Outside India (Vol. 7, pp. 5-12). Leiden: Panels of the VIIth World Sanskrit Conference. 1991.</ref> Cham kings studied classical Indian texts, such as the ''[[Dharmaśāstra]]'', and inscriptions make reference to [[Sanskrit literature]]. Eventually, while the Cham and Sanskrit languages influenced one another, Cham culture assimilated Hinduism, and Chams were eventually able to adequately express the Hindu religion in their own language.<ref name="book3" /> By the 8th century, the Cham script had outgrown Sanskrit and the Cham language was in full use.<ref name="book1" /> Most preserved manuscripts focus on religious rituals, epic battles and poems, and myths.<ref name="book3" /> Modern Chamic languages have the Southeast Asian [[language area|areal features]] of [[monosyllabic]]ity, [[tone (linguistics)|tonality]], and [[glottalization|glottalized consonants]]. However, they had reached the Southeast Asia mainland disyllabic and non-tonal. The script needed to be altered to meet these changes.<ref name="book2" /> ==Variety== The Cham now live in two groups: the Western Cham of Cambodia and the Eastern Cham (Panduranga/Phan Rang Cham) of Vietnam. For the first millennium AD, the [[Chamic languages]] were a dialect chain along the Vietnam coast. The breakup of this chain into distinct languages occurred once the Vietnamese pushed south, causing most Cham to move back into the highlands while some like Phan Rang Cham became a part of the lowland society ruled by the Vietnamese. The division of Cham into Western and Phan Rang Cham immediately followed the Vietnamese overthrow of the last Cham polity.<ref name="book2" /> The Western Cham people are mostly [[Muslim]]<ref>Trankell & Ovesen 2004</ref> and therefore prefer the [[Arabic script]]. The Eastern Cham are mostly [[Hindu]] and continued to use the Indic script. During French colonial times, both groups had to use the [[Latin alphabet]].{{citation needed|date=June 2019}} There are two varieties of the Cham script: ''Akhar Thrah'' (Eastern Cham) and ''Akhar Srak'' (Western Cham). The two are distinct enough to be encoded in separate blocks, the Eastern Cham block included in Unicode Standard version 5.1 since March 2008, the Western Cham block approved but still awaiting inclusion as of late 2023.<ref>"Proposal for encoding the Cham script in the BMP of the UCS"[https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7nw110n4].</ref><ref>Hosken, Martin.

The Cham language is also non-tonal. Words may contain one, two, or three syllables."</ref> ==Structure== Similar to other abugidas, the consonants of Cham have the inherent vowel. Dependent vowel diacritics are used to modify the inherent vowel.<ref name="Uni11" /> Since Cham does not have ''[[virama|virāma]]'', special characters should be used for pure consonants. This practice is similar to the ''chillu consonants'' of the [[Malayalam script]]. [[Image:Chamscript.png|thumb|The Eastern Cham script. Nasal consonants are shown both unmarked and with the diacritic ''kai''. The vowel diacritics are shown next to a circle, which indicates their position relative to any of the consonants.]] Most consonant letters, such as {{IPA|[b]}}, {{IPA|[t]}}, or {{IPA|[p]}}, include an [[inherent vowel]] {{IPA|[a]}} which does not need to be written. The [[nasal stops]], {{IPA|[m]}}, {{IPA|[n]}}, {{IPA|[ɲ]}}, and {{IPA|[ŋ]}} (the latter two transliterated ''ny'' and ''ng'' in the Latin alphabet) are exceptions, and have an inherent vowel {{IPA|[ɨ]}} (transliterated ''â''). A diacritic called ''kai,'' which does not occur with the other consonants, is added below a nasal consonant to write the {{IPA|[a]}} vowel.<ref name="book1" /> Cham words contain vowel and consonant-vowel (V and CV) syllables, apart from the last, which may also be CVC. There are a few characters for final consonants in the Cham script; other consonants merely extend a longer tail on the right side to indicate the absence of a final vowel.<ref name="book1" /> ===Consonants=== {| class="wikitable" |+ Consonant letters |- | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨆ|ipa=|iso=ka}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨇ|ipa=|iso=kha}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨈ|ipa=|iso=ga}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨉ|ipa=|iso=gha}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨊ|ipa=|iso=ngâ}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨋ|ipa=|iso=nga}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨌ|ipa=|iso=ca}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨍ|ipa=|iso=cha}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨎ|ipa=|iso=ja}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨏ|ipa=|iso=jha}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨐ|ipa=|iso=nyâ}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨑ|ipa=|iso=nya}} |- | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨒ|ipa=|iso=nja}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨓ|ipa=|iso=ta}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨔ|ipa=|iso=tha}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨕ|ipa=|iso=da}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨖ|ipa=|iso=dha}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨗ|ipa=|iso=nâ}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨘ|ipa=|iso=na}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨙ|ipa=|iso=nda}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨚ|ipa=|iso=pa}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨛ|ipa=|iso=pa}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨜ|ipa=|iso=pha}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨝ|ipa=|iso=ba}} |- | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨞ|ipa=|iso=bha}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨟ|ipa=|iso=mâ}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨠ|ipa=|iso=ma}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨡ|ipa=|iso=mba}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨢ|ipa=|iso=ya}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨣ|ipa=|iso=ra}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨤ|ipa=|iso=la}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨥ|ipa=|iso=wa}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨦ|ipa=|iso=ṣa}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨧ|ipa=|iso=sa}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=ꨨ|ipa=|iso=ha}} |} ===Medial consonants=== {| class="wikitable nounderlines Unicode" style="border-collapse:collapse;background:#FFFFFF;text-align:center" |+ Medial consonants (Consonant signs) |- !Diacritic | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=◌ꨳ|ipa=|iso=-ia}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=◌ꨴ|ipa=|iso=-ra}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=◌ꨵ|ipa=|iso=-la}} | {{letter|l=cja|s=Cham|ch=◌ꨶ|ipa=|iso=-ua}} |- !
