The [əu] sound does not occur on its own. It is always in diphthong with the "uh" as in "pull" sound. For example, 'no.' It's not 'no,' 'no.' To make this sound the corners of the mouth come in a little, oh, which meant that the lips themselves press out a little bit: oh, oh. The tongue comes up a little bit in the back, and the tip of the tongue comes forward, oh, and is extremely lightly touching the soft part of the mouth underneath the front teeth, right here.

[əu]這個音容易與pull中的[u]音混淆，例如no一詞要念作[nəu]而不是[nu]。發這個音時，嘴角略微向內收攏，也就是說嘴脣要向外突出。舌根稍稍向上擡起，舌尖朝前伸，輕輕觸碰門牙下側的柔軟處。

Sample words:

no 不

go 走

Sample sentence:

Mr. Stone shows off his snowmobile. Stone先生向人炫耀他的雪地車。

The [ai] diphthong. This combines the ah as in father and the ih as in sit. Aahh-iihh. In the ah vowel, the tongue is very relaxed, so the front is just kind of sitting there. Ah. However for the ih, it moves up a little on the back of the teeth. Aahh-iihh. So I would say the emphasis goes from the back of the tongue to the front.

[ai]這個音包含了father中的[a:]音和sit中的[i]音。發[a:]時舌頭非常放鬆，舌尖基本就是躺在那裏。但是到了[i]音時，舌尖要略微上臺，觸到齒背。所以我們可以說發[ai]時，重心是從舌根慢慢轉移到舌尖。
