The /ŋ/ sound is spelled with <ng>. The /l/ sound is spelled with <l> or <ll>.
This is a contrast between a velar nasal continuant and an alveolar lateral continuant, both voiced and only occurring in syllable-final position or in syllable-closing clusters. It is not a problem except slightly for Thai learners who generally have problems with final /l/ sounds.
