Dundulanyä nouns generally do not end in long vowels; the few exceptions that do (generally of onomatopoeic or baby talk origin) are treated as irregular nouns. The most common nouns ending in long vowels are certainly ''amamū'' "mother" and ''atabū'' (or ''batū'') "father", which (due to regular saṃdhi) have ''ūv'' before vocalic endings (e.g. ergative plural ''amamūvām''), but an irregular direct plural in ''-ūv-i'', i.e. ''amamūvi'', ''atabūvi'', ''batūvi''.
