@Som (सोम) Wow, I did not know Sanskrit had such a diverse palate for phones.

Sanskrit has three versions: ञ (ñ), ज्ञ (gñ) and न्य (ny). The last is a simple combination of n (न) and y (य). Knowing the sounds of Sanskrit is very useful to get the phonetics of most IE languages because one already knows how they are pronounced.

I agree with Bill — English doesn’t have a palatal nasal phoneme, so the sound is usually pronounced as /nj/ in English — with the /n/ and /j/ in separate syllables (as in “canyon”). If they have to be in the same syllable, you might hear /ni/. That said, in rapid speech, English speakers do have a tendency to assimilate the nasal to the following consonant (or semiconsonant), so it may be realized as a palatal nasal. 

Isaac, Sanskrit and all its child scripts are abugida alphasyllabary. There are 52 letters including vowels and consonants, not counting the vowel diacritics which can go with any consonant. If one includes those, it's 63 letters in the entire set, still not counting the very many possible consonant combos of up to five consonants in any sequence. Two examples are strya (स्त्र्य) and krng (कृङ).

Naturally, with that many letters a lot more sounds are represented. That's why knowing how to pronounce those is a very definite advantage when it comes to pronouncing sounds in other languages, because you already have most if not all those sounds.

Spanish was no problem at all, 100% of the sounds exist in Sanskrit already. For German, I had to work a bit on the Ü and Ö. Russian is by far the most difficult so far, in the Щ, Ж, Ы and the palatalized consonants with the soft sign (myagkiy znak, ь).

The IPA symbol for how ñ is commonly pronounced in Spanish is [ɲ], which is identified as a palatal nasal.
