Watch the lesson videos. Pronunciation is covered. The letters were picked 
because they exist in a majority of languages. Everybody is going to have 
trouble with some of the sounds, unfortunately. Most Americans struggle 
with or at least have to learn how to pronouce the X, but I imagine you 
have no problem with it as it exists in your native language already. It's 
just kind of a fact of the language. Swedish doesn't have the letter Z, for 
example. You'll just have to learn.

Lujvo exist because they're made for creating more words. If your question 
is why we have them instead of just using the four-letter version, would 
you rather say {jongau} or {jornygasnu}? {xamgyzmadu} or {xagmau}/{xauzma}?

se/te/ve/xe has a pattern, just not the AEIOU pattern. You'll find there 
are three common patterns in the language.

1. AEIOU - Obviously. Vowel order.
2. STVX - Alphabetical order of consonants. U is a vowel and W isn't in 
Lojban.
3. IAU - You see this for here/there/yonder, like {ti}, {ta}, and {tu}.
