[lojban-beginners] Re: pronounciation problem

Go with "locban," but voice the 'c'. It's like the difference between
the second syllables in "pleasure" and "pressure," at least in
American English. You're Swedish, right? I'm not familiar with how the
English accents sound around there (although I will visit Sweden
before I die.)
