ll question

[Enix]

I was wanting to know how the ll sounded.  On one page it is says it sounds like a-ll-ow, but it is to lose to l as in l-ost.  I have herd it sounds like yee as well.  Can someone help me?

[wm.annis]

If English were spelled like Na'vi is spelled "people" would be pipll.  Does that help?

[Enix]

Yes it does, thank you very much!

[Tanax]

So in short, ll is much deeper down in your throat while l is "brighter" and almost at your front teeth?

[Doolio]

well, yes, but it's not that much deeper, imho. although, i really think it is pretty much arbitrary because it is very easily differentiated in speech due to the fact that it lasts longer than the single 'l'.
