Hold the long sounds at least twice as long as the short ones, and don't let the sound change from start to finish.

When two vowels occur together in a work, let the pure quality of each one be heard, one after the other.

You may hear native speakers dropping the vowels i and u ( especially the latter in the work desu as shown here:

I like sukiyaki Watashi wa s''kiyaki go s'ki des ( dropped u's )

He worked in the northern branch office. K'ta no sh'ten de hatarakimash'ta ( droped i's )
