in most languages, for example, no word can end in -tr

Interestingly, in Russian there are words ending with "-tr". They are all borrowed and omit the "e" present in other languages. E.g. theatre, centre, sceptre and Burgermeister all end with "-tr" in Russian.

Petr is a common name in many slavic countries. There was a Voynich researcher in Holland some years ago with that name.
Thai has many words ending in -tr , though neither of the two consonants is pronounced (at most a half-heard t). These words usually derive from Sanskrit. "Mitr" means friend (sounds like "mit").
