How to pronounce my name

This is a short guide on how to pronounce my name more or less accurately for native English speakers.

The first name, Lvzhou, breaks into two syllables.
  1. The first syllable Lv can be pronounced as Lu, and ideally as with ü pronounced as in German.
  2. The second syllable zhou can be pronounced as Chow (as in Chow groups).
As for the last name, pronouncing it as Chern (as in Chern classes) is close to accurate. I share the same last name (in Chinese) with Shiing-Shen Chern (not related though, pretty sure).
