All letters not mentioned are used much as in English, though perhaps with less slurring. a as in father. i as in sleep or Peter. e as in fate u as in boot or blue o as in moat c as in pats -- may take some practice, the 'ts' sound is often tricky for English speakers. q as in church or chase. x as in sheep. r -- moderately trilled, if possible. w -- typically only used in diphthongs. j as in jeep or Jack or joy. g as in good. (no soft g's)
