Oh crap, is it jyu or juu? laugh.gif I've been seeing it as juu, and it's a bit weird to try and pronounce the u twice as long every time I want to say a number.

Timbo

just because it has 2 u's doesnt mean you probably pronounce it twice as long.

romanizations of asian languages are going to be different, depending on books and all that stuff. i'm sure juu and jyu are pronounced the same, its just a different way to spell it. at least, thats my experience with asian languages.
