User:Mellohi!/Old Irish terms with œ

There are several words in Old Irish whose first vowel tends to vascillate between the spellings au, ai, e, i, and u. This initial vowel has been hypothesized to be or  and arose from the u-infection of a of a u that came before a palatalized consonant, in addition to appearing where the prefix  is followed by  (with  being lost).
