[[File:Spectrogram of close central rounded vowel (IPA ʉ).png|thumb|A spectrogram of /ʉ/.]]

The '''close central rounded vowel''', or '''high central rounded vowel''',<ref>{{Vowel terminology}}</ref> is a type of [[vowel]] sound used in some spoken [[language]]s. The symbol in the [[International Phonetic Alphabet]] that represents this sound is {{angbr IPA|ʉ}}, and the equivalent [[X-SAMPA]] symbol is <code>}</code>. The sound is also commonly referred to by the name of [[U with bar|its symbol]], "barred u".

The close central rounded vowel is the vocalic equivalent of the rare [[labialized post-palatal approximant]] {{IPA|[ẅ]}}.<ref>Instead of "post-palatal", it can be called "retracted palatal", "backed palatal", "palato-velar", "pre-velar", "advanced velar", "fronted velar" or "front-velar".</ref>

In most languages this rounded vowel is pronounced with [[roundedness|protruded lips]] (''endolabial''). However, in a few cases the lips are compressed (''exolabial'').

Some languages feature the '''near-close central rounded vowel''' ({{audio|Near-close central rounded vowel2.ogg|listen}}), which is slightly lower. It is most often transcribed in IPA with {{angbr IPA|ʉ̞}}, {{angbr IPA|ʊ̈}} and {{angbr IPA|ʊ̟}}, but {{angbr IPA|ɵ̝}} is also a possible transcription. The symbol {{angbr IPA|ᵿ}}, a conflation of {{angbr IPA|ʊ}} and {{angbr IPA|ʉ}}, is used as an unofficial extension of the IPA to represent this sound by a number of publications, such as ''Accents of English'' by [[John C. Wells]]. In the third edition of the ''[[Oxford English Dictionary]]'', {{angbr IPA|ᵿ}} represents [[free variation]] between {{IPA|/ʊ/}} and {{IPA|/ə/}}.

==Close central protruded vowel==
The '''close central protruded vowel''' is typically transcribed in IPA simply as {{angbr IPA|ʉ}}, and that is the convention used in this article. As there is no dedicated [[IPA diacritic|diacritic]] for protrusion in the IPA, symbol for the close central rounded vowel with an old diacritic for labialization, {{angbr IPA|&nbsp;&nbsp;̫}}, can be used as an ''ad hoc'' symbol {{angbr IPA|ʉ̫}} for the close central protruded vowel. Another possible transcription is {{angbr IPA|ʉʷ}} or {{angbr IPA|ɨʷ}} (a close central vowel modified by endolabialization), but this could be misread as a diphthong.

===Features===
{{close vowel}}
{{central vowel}}
{{protruded vowel}}

===Occurrence===
Because central rounded vowels are assumed to have protrusion, and few descriptions cover the distinction, some of the following may actually have compression.

==Close central compressed vowel==
{{Infobox IPA

|ipa symbol2 = ɨ͡β̞
|ipa symbol3 = ɨᵝ
|showbelow = no
}}

As there is no official diacritic for compression in the IPA, the centering diacritic is used with the front rounded vowel {{IPA|[y]}}, which is normally compressed. Other possible transcriptions are {{angbr IPA|ɨ͡β̞}} (simultaneous {{IPA|[ɨ]}} and labial compression) and {{angbr IPA|ɨᵝ}} ({{IPA|[ɨ]}} modified with labial compression<ref>e.g. in Flemming (2002) ''Auditory representations in phonology'', p. 83.</ref>).

===Features===
{{close vowel}}
{{central vowel}}
{{compressed vowel}}

===Occurrence===
This vowel is typically transcribed in IPA with {{angbr IPA|ʉ}}. It occurs in some dialects of [[Swedish language|Swedish]], but see also [[Close front rounded vowel#Close front compressed vowel|close front compressed vowel]]. The close back vowels of Norwegian and Swedish are also compressed. See [[Close back rounded vowel#Close back compressed vowel|close back compressed vowel]]. It also occurs in [[Japanese language|Japanese]] as an [[allophone]]. [[Medumba language|Medumba]] has a compressed central vowel {{IPA|[ɨᵝ]}} where the corners of the mouth are not drawn together.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Olson |first1=Kenneth |last2=Meynadier |first2=Yohann |title=ON MEDUMBA BILABIAL TRILLS AND VOWELS |journal=18th International Congress of Phonetic Sciences |date=2015 |pages=USBkey#0522 |url=https://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal-01211220 |access-date=20 November 2021}}</ref>
