* In Bujanski, words ending in diphthongs tend to have an echo vowel and r before the diphthong. For example, atolmai (albatross) becoming atolmarai (albatrosses), and ubejoi (one spinel gem) becoming ubejoroi (some spinel gems).
	+ ai - arai
	+ oi - oroi
* Some Bujanski diphthongs do not follow this rule, such as mæu (cat) becoming mæuve (cats) in plural.
