If there is a single wave connecting the tops of symbols "D" and "R", you get "DOR". If a wave connects the symbols on the bottom, you get "DŌR". Having two waves at the bottom will give "DUR".

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.
