The compound vowel øe is dialectal may be substituted with oe to avoid the use of ø.
- Example: gøeh -> goeh
It is generally oe in the north and e in the south, but there is no strong rule.
The verb øe (會^†; to be able to / to possibly / will) is shortened as just Template:X2 in most places.
- Examples: exhiao, extaxng, exsae.
