Question about pluralized words

If you have a word that ends in a double letter like "zahkrii" (sword), how would you pluralize it? Using the normal way it would be "zahkriiie" (three I's), but that would probably be awkward to write and pronounce.

There is no known way of making such a plural noun in canon. We have an invented rule of adding -he to these kinds of words, so zahkriihe "swords" or ziihe "spirits."
