[lojban] Re: cmene for Los Angeles

The way I've always heard it pronounced I would think {los anjylys} to be a good approximation of how it's pronounced.  It is a shame that ndj is not allowed.

I would appreciate it if our US lojbanists help
sort this out.

For Los Angeles, I've seen 
{losandjylys} and {
losandjeles}.  Yet any time I hear Americans
say it, the s is hard and
the last syllable is drawn out as in eee.
 
So it seems to me that the closest to local pronunciation
would be {lozandjylis}.
 
Comments please.

I won't speak to local pronunciation as there are Californians on the list, but {ndj} is disallowed. I've used {los. anydjylys.}
