This diphthong /ʷo/ is in free variation with the /o/; there is no contrast. If some other vowel, other than /o/, follows a labialized consonant, the word is probably a Mandarin Chinese loan.唇发音出现在非源自汉语的字群中，是子音加上 /o/ 的结果。这是由元音字母 /o/ 所带来的影响 – 嘴唇做圆形状而发出的音 – 而产生的唇发音。双元音 /o/ 是与 /o/ 自由变化；没有对比。如果有其他非 /o/ 的元音，跟在一个唇发音子音之后，这个字很可能是来自汉语的借词。wolhuirwo⁵⁵xʷe²¹
