My girlfriend is Hungarian and gets very annoyed when I try to come up with "close enough" versions of things like "gy" or "ny", etc.
Me: Oh, so it's like a cross between the end of "fridge" and the beginning of the French "dieu"?
Her: No! You're making this too complicated...it's just "gy". It's a Hungarian sound. You guys don't have it.
Me: /shrug
(I still do a better job at remembering vowel sounds or those combo letters if I have a more familiar analogue. It's almost like a pnemonic for me.)
