darkweasel:But ju (like 'you') is a different sound to iŭ (iŭ being like "ill" with a dark L), unless you were getting at something else in which case I'm confusedceigered:oŭ yes, iŭ no since that's written "ju"
And I'd say iŭ and oŭ are also other possible constructions, as they aren't necessarily impossible to pronounce, but definitely rare.

oŭ is how we describe the 'English o', an o with an audible rounding at the end.
