<!-- (Audio) Li Hong: en, ben, men, fen, zhen, shen, ren, shēn, shén, shěn, shèn -->
# --description--
`en` is a front nasal final. Like `an`, it ends with the nasal `n` sound.
To pronounce `en`, you begin with a tighter mouth shape than `an`, then lightly press the tip of your tongue behind your top teeth to finish with `n`.
This nasal final is short, quick, and forward in the mouth.
When `en` is combined with the initials, it can form syllables like `ben`, `men`, `fen`, `zhen`, `shen`, and `ren`.
Let's practice pronouncing `en` and the syllables, and then use `shen` in different tones as an example.
| Pinyin | Character|
|--------|----------|
| `shēn` | `深`|
| `shén` | `神`|
| `shěn` | `审`|
| `shèn` | `慎`|
# --assignment--
I've listened to the audio and practiced pronouncing the nasal final and syllables.
