==={{tp|kulupu}}===
The glyph for {{tp|[[kulupu]]}} ({{sp|kulupu}}) allows for a special combination, in which the modifier glyph replaces each of the 3 circle [[radical]]s. This plays on the fact that {{tp|kulupu}} alone is interchangeable with the nonspecific phrase {{tp|kulupu [[ijo]]}}, and the glyph for {{tp|ijo}} is a single circle ({{sp|ijo}}).
===Surrounding===
The glyph for {{tp|[[sin]]}} ({{sp|sin}}) has a peculiarity where, when used as a modifier, the rays can be placed around the head glyph. This chiefly occurs in a common combined glyph for the [[phrase]] {{tp|[[nimi sin]]}} ({{sp|nimi-sin}}), and may be an alteration of a stacked form ({{sp|nimi^sin}}). Oddly, if interpreted as a scaled glyph, the word order would be reversed ({{tp|sin nimi}}; contrast writing {{tp|nimi sin}} as {{sp|nimi*sin}}).
===Juxtaposition===
[[Number words]] are sometimes combined by simply placing them side by side within the space of a single glyph. For the glyphs based on tally marks, this is the most accepted way to combine them.
