I'm having difficulty pronouncing these words without looking like I'm spitting something out. Could someone post a video of somebody saying these words please? I would like to see how it should be done.

Thanks,

Phoebe

Hi, phoebe. Both YUE and YUAN get a little bit nasal sound. Strat from YU. And try to keep pouting when you pronounce YUE AND YUAN. Your tongue at the same time goes against the lower teeth. YUE will be finished with lightly open mouth, while YUAN is bigger. Amy
