How to Pronounce Plurals (-j)

edit

The lesson tells me how to make a noun plural (add j to the end) and it tells me that j is pronounced like English consonant y, but it does not tell me how to pronounce j at the end of a noun. Is it like the vowel y? This seems like an important part that is missing.

"J" its not a vowel, only consonant. So "la filo" which means "the son" in plural will be "la filoj" and it will be pronounced like in the English word "boy", that "oy" is sort of equal to "oj" in Espranto. MEuliĉo (discusscontribs) 12:42, 18 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Adding Audio

edit

It would be great to get some audio so I can hear what the language actually sounds like.
