The influence of Jabi was always strong due to [[Xaewoon|religions reasons]], but in the case of Asdoh, Jabi was more of a written modifier, used in geographical names, titles and personal names. Hureed is influenced to a greater degree, although Jabi influences are usually very clear and localized to certain uses and contexts.

Written Bukk generally does not utilize double vowels, unless the intent is to make the vowel long, which is rare. Rather, it employs a special "modifier letter", which is usually transcribed as "a". It is in combination with "a" that written Bukk produces the more interesting sounds. This explains why it's difficult to immediately figure out the pronunciation of Bukk words. A good example would be a name such as [[Noana Kaogee]] /'nwɑnə kjuːgiː/ where the relevant combinations of "oa" and "ao" produce very particular sounds.
