Here's a breakdown:
* l: The "l" sound is similar to the English "l" sound, but with a slightly softer, less distinct articulation.
* ə: The "ə" sound is the schwa, a very short, unstressed vowel sound found in many languages, including English. It's similar to the "uh" sound in the English word "about" or the "a" sound in the English word "sofa."
Example:
* "Le livre" (the book) would be pronounced lə livr.
