Thanks for the good explanation to both of you.

But when a "wob-bo" is added to "dontya-xo", I think even the oxomiya utsaaron becomes "swo" instead of "xo". I mean we can say "xorog" for "sworgo", but I don't think can't pronounce it as "xorgiya" instead of "sworgiya", do/can we?
So IMHO, "sworgiya" is not an 'opobhrongxo' of anything like 'xorgiya', it is just a separate word by itself.
Thanks again.
