Kaz, are you asking for an example of how the u makes a difference in the pronunciations? If so, just pronounce neighbor as neighbour instead of like neighber or neighbore. It's just like saying your instead of yore. It's a oo sound but slightly different. At least, in my head. Sorry, I can't explain it better.
