the dutch 'eu' sounds the same as the german 'ö' (oe) like in 'blöd' or 'schön'.
if you find how to pronounce "Goethe", you got it.
it's somewhere between the 'u' in 'fun' and 'ou' in 'you'.
Basically, English speakers, to learn how to pronounce it, say 'e' as in 'pet.' While holding the vowel sound, shape your lips into an 'o' shape while still pronouncing the 'e.' That's the oe from German, and the eu from Dutch.

In historical linguistics, English lost its front round vowels long time ago. This might be from both Celtic and Romance influence.

You just say it plenty of time until they got the trick. Fucking morrons.
