  1. The ‘a’s sound like the ‘a’ in ‘father’;
  2. The ‘comma’ under the ‘ç‘ is known as a cedilla, and converts the ‘ç’ to an ‘s’ in ‘city’, even though it is followed by a vowel (‘a’ in this case); 
  3. In French, as in English a ‘g‘ followed by an ‘e‘ softens to the ‘s’ sound in ‘treaSure’. The final ‘e’ is silent.
