Yeah, stupid Americans with their... checks notes ...questions about pronunciation due their own cultural linguistic phonetic norms!

It's Esperanto so "forĝejo", they removed diacritic, it's pronounced as [forˈd͡ʒejo]

[-] Faresh@lemmy.ml 3 points 4 weeks ago

It's esperanto (but they removed the diacritic for some reason): Forĝejo

And it is pronounced /forˈd͡ʒe.jo/
