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").

So you can't find an English word with that vowel sound. https://painfulenglish.com/2013/05/02/there-is-no-u-sound-in-the-english-language/ Edited June 17, 2019 by wumo26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be clear - I meant the "eau" part, not the "ful" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dareza 911 Posted June 17, 2019 #89 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Austria They were great today. Serbia is once again a big disappointment. Yes this is first match, but the team works pretty bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
