To pronounce zh, curl the tip of your tongue upward and back until it presses against the hard palate, blocking the airflow completely. Then, release your tongue slightly to create a narrow channel. Expel the air through this channel without a strong puff to produce a firm, buzzing sound that begins instantly.

When zh combines with the finals a, e, and u, you get the syllables: zha, zhe, and zhu.

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

Pinyin	Character
`zhū`	`猪`
`zhú`	`竹`
`zhǔ`	`主`
`zhù`	`住`
