Okay so how do you think the "ch" in "Radch" and "Radchaai" are pronounced?
I'd been saying "k" but that feels awkward in "Radch". Gotta insert a marginal vowel. And, I just realized the actual consonant might well be "x", as in "challah".
cool if so.
or if it's truly hardcore, it's a consonant that doesn't appear in english.

@starkatt I mean, there's a limited set of options! Run through the list and pick one ya like. :D

@zebratron2084 I'm pretty bad at pronouncing them too tbh.
But I can hear 'em clearly in my head voice.
