The reduced number of sounds of the final consonant (ตัวสะกด [tu:a-- sa\ got\]) is because there are no final sounds like "S" and "L" and sounds that resemble each other in any case, were grouped into the same pronunciation. These are the so-called word-end protocols:

In the generation of Thai transliteration (with Thai characters), Sattha Akson, are consistently used only eight consonants at the end of a syllable. Although the sounds of k, p and t are actually plosives, and RTGS (Romanization of the Royal Institute for names) are implemented as such, they are used at Sattha Akson in their "soft" versions of g = , d = und b = .

 

 

 

Final Consonants
When a consonant comes at the end of a syllable, it may be pronounced differently than in the initial position. While at the beginning of syllables 28 distinct sounds for consonants exists, there are only 8 at the end of a syllable. This is due to the fact that whole groups of consonants have the same final sound. The so-called word-ending-protocols are:
