    The long o (oe or ö) is a sound present in north European languages, and also in many Asian languages, including Japanese.

      am Finnish, so i responded as such. for Japanese, however, you’d use ō instead. that is not an ö. ou is also acceptable.

        You’re right, it should be ou here, not oe.

      Long o in Finnish is oo, ö is pronounced different and could also be pronounced as long öö.

        Long o in Finnish is oo

        That is logical and sensible. Unfortunately, oo in English is a long u, so long o has to be approximated as oe.
