IU

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

The 32nd letter of the T́uliǹgrai alphabet is a diphthong, the letters I and U pronounced so closely together that there's no audible break between them.

IU is pronounced like the EW in the English word pew, or the EU in feud, but without the strong W sound at the end of those English words. Its name is iu (informal) and eiuretai (formal).
