==== Y̊ ====
 
There is also the letter Y̊ ẙ which used to write the vowel sound /ʉ/ in old and middle Remÿsian, however, /ʉ/ gradually shifted toward /œ/ in late middle Remÿsian but the letter was kept around to differentiate homophones. In more modern spellings, ẙ has been completely removed from the alphabet.
 
=== Diphthongs ===
 
Remÿsian has 24 diphthongs (twelve oral, twelve nasal). The letter combinations <ij> and <uw> as well as their nasal equivalents are not diphthongs but rather long vowels /iː/ and /uː/ respectively. This vowel length is phonemic, an example of phonemic length is ''Kut'' (to turn) and ''Kuwt'' (to reveal). Additionally, in certain dialects, <yj> has become a long /y/.
