To pronounce j, raise the front of your tongue to press against the hard palate. The tip of your tongue should point down, behind your bottom teeth. Build up a little air pressure, then release it gently to make a soft, unaspirated sound.

When j combines with the finals i and u, you get the syllables: ji and ju. Note that ü is written as u after j.

Let’s practice pronouncing these syllables, and then use ju in different tones as an example.

Pinyin	Character
`jū`	`居`
`jú`	`菊`
`jǔ`	`举`
`jù`	`句`
