I saw Valerie’s message about your question and think I might have something to reply now. ;-)

I really had to think about how I would write this detail of writing for a while. As I don’t know ThaiSL, I am mainly basing this off of the video link that you sent. I wrote the first 10 shown. From your image, it seems there are more than that but hopefully this will give you some ideas.

I tried to write these so they fit as closely as possible to what was in the video while still being readable. (I am not sure if I always succeeded in my attempt, but it's a start.)
