See what we say for interview segment “Here 1”, except that in this interview segment “Here 2”, which is from quite late in the interview, at 55:23.50 to 55:30.50, in the overall sound file of the interview, Lolly first says what we hear as [ diu ], which is more in the nature of having two vowels one after the other, then she says the word the second time, as what we hear as [ diw ], which is more like the word having a diphthong.
