The front nasal final `ian` may look like it has three parts: `i`, `a`, and `n`, but its real pronunciation is more like a fast blend of `i` and a light nasal ending.
Start by forming the high front vowel `i`, with your tongue close to the roof of your mouth and your lips slightly spread. Then, glide quickly into a very short transition sound similar to the `e` in `ie`, and end with the front nasal `n`, using the tip of your tongue behind your upper teeth. The sound should be smooth and continuous.

There are 16 nasal finals in Pinyin. These are syllables that end with a nasal sound, either `n` (front nasal) or `ng` (back nasal).
The nasal final `an` is the first one you learn. It's made of a simple vowel plus a nasal ending.
The nasal final `an` is the first one you learn. It's made of a vowel `a` plus a nasal ending.
To pronounce `an`, start with the short vowel `a`, then lightly close the airflow with your tongue touching behind your top teeth to make the `n` sound. Your lips should stay relaxed and slightly open. This is a front nasal final because the tongue tip makes the nasal sound in the front of the mouth.
When combined with the initials, you can form syllables like `ban`, `pan`, `man`, `dan`, `lan`, `shan`, and `ran`.
When `an` is combined with the initials, it can form syllables like `ban`, `pan`, `man`, `dan`, `lan`, `shan`, and `ran`.

`ing` is a back nasal final. It begins with the vowel `i`, made with the tongue close to the roof of the mouth and the lips spread. Then it moves directly into the back nasal `ng`, produced with the back of the tongue against the soft palate.
This makes `ing` different from `in`, which ends with the front nasal `n`. In `ing`, the nasal sound resonates at the back of the mouth, giving it a deeper quality.

`uan` is a smooth blend that starts with the rounded vowel `u` and ends with the nasal `n` sound.
`uan` is a smooth blend that starts with the vowel `u` and ends with the nasal `n` sound.
Begin by rounding your lips tightly to pronounce `u`, then quickly open your mouth slightly to produce a short vowel like `a`, and finish with the nasal `n` sound by gently touching the tongue tip behind your upper teeth.
Although the spelling is `u-a-n`, the middle `a` is very short and light. It should feel like one connected syllable, not three separate parts.
When combined with the initials, you can form syllables like `duan`, `tuan`, `guan`, `kuan`, and `huan`.
