In old Romanian and still in some local pronunciations there is another example of such a non-syllabic, non-semivocalic phoneme, derived from , which manifests itself as labialization of the preceding sound. The usual IPA notation is . It is found at the end of some words after consonants and semivowels, as in "un urs", pronounced ('a bear'), or "îmi spui" ('you tell me'). The disappearance of this phoneme might be attributed to the fact that, unlike , it didn't play any morphological role. It is a trace of Latin endings containing ("-us", -ūs, "-um", "-ō"), this phoneme is related to vowel used to connect the definite article "l" to the stem of a noun or adjective, as in "domn — domnul" ('lord — the lord', cf. Latin "dominus").
