Many are the examples of triphthongs, a combination of monosyllabic vowels that involve a rapid movement of the quality articulator from one vowel to another that passes over a third.
A tripthong must be the succession of three vowels in a single syllable, two closed vowels and one open vowel, so by nature they are a bit more difficult to pronounce.

Open vowels are 'a', 'e', and 'o', since you need to open your mouth to pronounce them. On the other hand, the closed vowels are the 'i' and the 'u' because the movement of the mouth when pronouncing them is closed.
What is a tripthong?
It can be said that a tripthong is the union of three vowels, either letters or sounds, pronounced as a single syllable.
It is contrasted with the diphthong, when two vowels that are pronounced together are on the same syllable, and the hiatus, when there is a combination between two open vowels or an open and a closed vowel.
Almost all triphthongs are verb conjugations that belong to the second person plural, in this case you.
It is believed that thanks to the pronunciation of triphthongs, in Latin America the mode 'you' was changed to 'you'.
