Best Answer

No common English words have the spelling YOO. There are many words that sound like YOO that have only a U or an EW:

cue,

cute, mute

few, mew, pew

uniform, unique

*There is some ambiguity for words such as pure, which is classed as a short YOO because it precedes an R, while the word puce is classed as a long YOO.
