Chune is the phonetic spelling of the Irish form of "tune," which in British English is commonly pronounced tyune. Palatalization of the T before the Y creates CH. The same thing happens to the T +Y in "Got you," which is pronounced gotcha.

Robert de Chany has written several novels, including "The Da Vinci Code," "Angels & Demons," and "Inferno." He is known for blending elements of history, art, and religion into his thrilling stories.

A soft consonant is a consonant sound produced with a relatively weak friction of air flow through the vocal tract. In many languages, soft consonants are often associated with palatalization, where the front part of the tongue is raised towards the hard palate in the mouth. Soft consonants typically have a lighter or more palatal quality compared to their hard counterparts.

The palate - is the roof of the mouth. It's divided into two sections - the hard palate at the front, which is where the teeth are, and the soft palate, which moves when you draw your tongue to the back of your mouth.
