I just thought I'd mention that an old "conlang" of mine called _Prandzh_ - it was really only a naming language, and IIRC every single word created was a noun or an adjective - had the diphthong [ay]. The only words containing it I can now recall was _Londayd_ [,lOn.'dayd], the name of a politico-economical faction, and the derived adj _londaydzh_. I even thought myself to pronounce [ay] properly ... Andreas
