Do the first syllables of "human" and "you" sound the same to you when Americans say it? That's interesting.
Not the same, exactly. But if I was writing it out phonetically, I'd have to go with "yoo-man" rather than anything else.
(Someday, I'm so going to video myself demonstrating my normal accent and my fake British and American, so that I can actually discuss accents without resorting to really weird spellings.)
