I am not actaully sure, 100 percent, how one is to pronounce "uj", and "eŭ".
Would someone clear this up for me? Using English examples if you would.
Dankon,
Carter

eŭ = "oh" said in a posh British accent

He can't quite get R right, so instead of calling me "Erin", my name ends up as "Ewin". That Ew sound (like Er in Erin, but with Ew instead) replicates the eŭ sound - "eŭin".
In English, of course, it comes out like "eh-win", but if you pronounce the ehw- part and stop before pronouncing the -in part, then you've got the sound of eŭ.
