If you wanna use common words, use "Schéma" rather then "scème". FYI "taon" is quite a rare word also.

This was an old request but I've added this recording because nobody was pronouncing the œ̃ (the difference between ɛ̃ and œ̃ is only made in certain parts of France). I thought it could be useful for nasal vowels geeks.

Don't trust my ɛ / ɛː difference and my jeune/jeûne too much. I have made an effort for this list but they don't come naturally to me.
