Here’s a great looking Baybayin tattoo of Pamilya (PA-MI-YA) with a rosary. Tattoo by Gene Tesa (who also did my 1st tattoo)

    The person who has the tattoo opted for “tradional” Baybayin where only letters followed by a vowel are used with the exception for vowels themselves. In modern Baybayin, a cancellation kudlit is used to “cancel” the following vowel sound as shown in the bottom file. The L is represented by the LA character with the X underneath it. The X converts the LA to L.
