Xue is a proper noun used as a surname or given name in various East Asian languages; in Chinese contexts it may be part of a compound name. It is pronounced with a concise, single-syllable vowel, often anglicized as “shweh” or “shway,” depending on language background, and can carry cultural or familial significance. Accurately producing Xue requires attention to Mandarin vowel quality and rounded lips for some transliterations.
