/ˌsʌbˈstɪtjuənd/

Where it comes from

Borrowed from Latin substituendus; compare substituendum.

noun substituends

A substitute; something that substitutes for another. Each substituend SN, it seems, would amount to the same thing as its corresponding UN in SOME not very strained context.
A substituendum; something to be substituted or replaced. […]but since the substitute y is not treated like the substituend vowel, the option will not prevail.
