Diphthong: "Iu"

Diphthongs occur when an unstressed “i”, “u”, or “y-ending” appears next to another vowel in the same syllable. Their vowel sounds do not change, but they blend together to form a single syllable.

One such vowel combination, “iu”, is similar to the English word “you,” except that it is a somewhat shorter sound.
