00 I want to ask a question about the punctuations of the 'du' sound in the words such as produce, introduce, duty, due. I know there are two ways to say the sounds in British English. One is /dju:/ and the other is / 00 dʒu:/. 02 br
02 br
00 I ,however, 00 heard some British say 'du', which is in-between the above two sounds. It sounds like / 00 dʒju:/. 02 br
02 br
00 Which one is the usualy way that British would say? 02 br
