Xin : pronounced close to "shin" but the shape of mouth is flatter with teeth almost closed.

Yu: very close to the last part of French greeting 'Salut'.

I would call that the definative answer.

Thanks Xin.

Well it's about time, Xin. I was wondering if you were ever going to get around to settling the matter.

I think you were just sitting there watching and laughing at everyone until you couldn't stand it any longer.

Fortunately, my girlfriend is Chinese

, so I a was able to get the answer from her (except for the exact tones).

But mostly, thank you for
"pronounced close to 'shin' but the shape of mouth is flatter with teeth almost closed" + "ing"

= xinning.
