Greetings:
Can anyone provide an IPA phoneme pronunciation of the Vietnamese word cu-nao as used in the following sentence:
“characteristic high-necked white pajama type of garment, called a cu-nao, and he wore open-toed rubber sandals.”
Quote is from a New York Times article.

P.S. It could be that the author of the New York Times article made a mistake. It would be very helpful to me if there is another name (in Vietnamese or an Anglicization) for the "high-necked white pajama type of garment" referred to as a cu-nao in the quote from the New York Times.
