I tried pronouncing that. Yikes. I'd have to say my favorite vowel is U with an umlaut. It's umlaut in Deutschland, anyway. When I was learning proper German grammar, the teacher would always tell us the sound of the umlauted U by itself, and it made me laugh. "EEEEUUUUUUUEH." She did it flawlessly, complete by leaning as far towards the nearest student as possible and protruding her lips as far as she could.
