"Phew" is a word we say when we are happy about an outcome, that otherwise would have been bad. In other words, a bad outcome was narrowly avoided. The person was lucky. The word is an exclamation.
Times someone might say "Phew:"
- They were almost caught doing something they're not supposed to. Ultimately, they weren't caught, and they're happy about that. "Phew! That was a close one!"
- In a horror movie, the main character was almost caught by the bad guy. "Phew! I was almost a goner!"
- Someone bet all their money on something, and they ended up winning the bet. "Phew! I don't know what I would've done if I had lost."
- Someone got a good grade on a test they didn't study for. "Phew! My parents would have killed me if I failed."
- Someone almost fell off of a bridge. "Phew! That was scary!"

You can pronounce "Phew" two different ways. One sounds like the word "Few," and the other is just a sound.
