In this pinyin lesson, we learn five compound finals, which are an, en, in, un, ün. We also learn some Chinese characters that use “an, en, in, un, ün”. In addition, you can get listening exercises and quizzes for an, en, in, un, ün.<\/p>\n

Pro<\/em>nunciation Guide for an, en, in, un, ün<\/h3>\n

The final “un” is the short form of “uen”. Namely, “uen = un”.<\/p>\n

The final “ün” is the short form of “üen”. Namely, “üen = ün”. The final “üen” is written as “un” (no \u016bmlaut) after j, q, x, or y. Namely, “jüen = jun”, “qüen = qun”, “xüen = xun”, and “yüen = yun”.<\/p>\n
