All of the Rs are a bit soft except for dRuer, which is pronounced with a bit of a K!.!.!. like, say kuh kuh kuh kuh and then say er er er er er and sort of softly close your throat where you pronounced your K's!. It's a weird french thing to explain!.
The only reason I put the other R's in there is because the E's sort of have this weird soft R sound in them!. If it's easier, Luh-tawn-dkruh would work pretty well too!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
