Etymology: Eretiǹgrai AI, from the same letter in Mižinai.

The 30th letter of the T́uliǹgrai alphabet is a diphthong, the letters A and I pronounced so closely together that there's no audible break between them.

AI is pronounced like the "long I" in English, like AE in Latin, or AY or AI in Spanish. Its name is ai (informal) and eairetai (formal).
