The word Up starts with the letter U, pronounced /ʌ/, closest to the Arabic بين الفتحة والضمة (أَ/أُ). Open the mouth slightly and make a short sound from the middle of the mouth: 'u' as in up, without rounding the lips.
Meaning in Arabic: فوق. Listen a few times and repeat with your child, then look for a up in a picture or around the house to tie the word to its meaning.
