IPA: y
From UniLang Wiki
The vowel [y] is a rounded vowel because it uses the labial resonator (uses the lips to make sound). It’s also a closed vowel because the degree of aperture of the mouth is the first — minimum. And it is a front vowel because the tongue body is in the pre-palatal region.
It is written in different ways – in:
* French, Dutch (there are some exceptions) as u,
* Dutch as uu,
* German, Hungarian, Turkish, Estonian as ü,
* Norwegian, Finnish, Swedish, German (there are some exceptions) as y.
