minimal pairs ʊ versus u
Hello I am training my ears, those sounds ʊ as in book and u as in suit are hard for me to distinguish, so I found out a list with minimal pairs. Could you help me pronouncing the list? please at a normal pace, making a little pause between each word, with the same tone, intonation, speed, etc. so I won't have clues, then I will use anki or memrise to create flashcards and test myself. I am more familiar with the american pronunciation, so I prefer the american one but if you are native of other accent and you are willing to help me I will appreciate your effort. You could use http://vocaroo.com/ to make the recording and post the link here and then I will download it. Thank you so much

I didn't pronounce words that didn't make sense such as lucre or kook.

I hope you won't mind an Australian accent!
I've added some recordings to the end of this playlist: https://soundcloud.com/user-680684195/sets/english-pronunciation
You just need to scroll to the bottom to find them. I also have a bunch of other minimum pairs in the same playlist if you're interested.
I didn't pronounced the "bull" and "buhl", as well as "took" and "toque" because I've never heard of the words "buhl" and "toque" before.
You should be aware that I pronounce both "fool" and "full" with a "ʊ" sound, except it's longer in duration in "pool". Neither of them has the "u:" sound from "suit" or "Luke"; but I recorded them anyway, since I don't pronounce them exactly the same way. The same applies to "fool" and "full".
