There's a Japanese word I'm having trouble pronouncing!

I'm trying to learn the Japanese phrase "nan to iu" but I'm unsure how to pronounce "iu"

Do I just pronounce it as two separate syllables, いう?

Or do I blend those two sounds together?

I am pretty sure it kind of sounds like ゆう in this  case

We pronounce "iu" as two separate syllables, but ゆう is also used in casual chat.

Oh, that kind of makes sense!
