The nasal final consonants ''m'', ''n'', and ''ng'' can be appended to any of the vowels and some of the diphthongs. In addition, ''m'' and ''ng'' can function as independent syllables by themselves.

The stops ''h''/''q'', ''k''/''g'', ''p''/''b'' and ''t''/''d'' can appear as the last letter in a syllable, in which case they are pronounced as unreleased stops.  (The final consonants ''h'' and ''q'' stand for a glottal stop of high and low tone, respectively.)

TMSS originally prescribed two special characters: the Greek {{w|Nu (letter)}} and an [[o]] crossed by a backslash. To enable ASCII only typing, these were replaced with the Latin letter ''v'' and number ''0'', respectively. In modern computing environments, [[ø]] ("letter O with stroke") is used without much technical difficulty.
