Skundavisk
Etymology
From Middle Skundavisk dur, from Old Skundavisk duru, from Halmisk ᛞᚢᚱᚢ (duru), ᛞᚢᚱᚢᛉ (duruŕ), from Proto-Germanic *durz. Originally a consonant-stem, the word shifted to an u-stem early in Halmisk, probably to avoid the direct contact between the similar sounding letters r and ŕ. As the original consonant-stem and u-stem noun classes merged in Late Old Skundavisk, this shift is now invisible and dur behaves like any modern regularly derived consonant-stem.
