Then again, I can't really recall an English word with the correct sound for the ü.

I think the "beautiful" is the closest one.

Now, I'm not a native German speaker, but as far as I understand the phonetics, most are pretty wrong :p Löwen being pronounced 'Lerv-un' for example, I've never heard any sort of 'r' sound in a word like 'Löwen', unless this specific name is an exception :d 

 

Also, Nübel pronounced as 'Nooble' sounds to me like it would have been accurate if it was Nubel instead of Nübel. Then again, I can't really recall an English word with the correct sound for the ü. Also, I might just be entirely wrong, since once again, I'm not a native speaker.

 

You are right, they are not pronounced like that, But I can't think of any english words with similar phonetics either. For the French Speakers: The "ö" is pronounced like "eu" in the french word "joyeux". The "ü" is pronounced like the "u" in many French words (for example in "une" or "tu").

There is no ü-sound in English. So you can't find an English word with that vowel sound.

I said it's the closest one, though I know it is quite far. To be clear - I meant the "eau" part, not the "ful" ;)
