Par example: ménage à trois may&-'NAHSH ah&-'TWAH It may help to check out some sort of French 101 tape at a public library. Best, GeoffAzure.Good example. The "s" in "pleasure" is also equivalent to the French "j". The Black Knight always triumphs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "s" in "pleasure" is also equivalent to the French "j".I also believe that "zh" is an acceptable way to make the soft "g"...a few others used it earlier, but I didn't see anyone point it out. dB ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
