The long OO sound is the sound of a long U, as seen in flute and dune (floot, doon). This is an exception to the concept that long vowels "say their name." The YOO form may be considered just a variation of the long OO, or as a separate vowel sound.The long YOO (and a possible short YOO) sounds like the letter U, either because it is beginning a word (unique, uniform) or because certain vowels come before the long U. You can hear the YOO in cute, mute, mule, feud, fuel, pupil, and pure. Most dictionaries will use a consonant Y before the OO or long U to indicate this pronunciation.Some dictionaries avoid the distinction by using an umlaut U instead of a long U to indicate OO.* The reason many vowel lists avoid pairing the OO and YOO sounds is that saying "long U" can be confusing where there are both OO and YOO versions of words: cute/coot, mute/moot, feud/food, fuel/fool.
