Assuming I don't get confused with the pronunciations, speaking of which is it supposed to say j is pronounced like an S?

Not exactly; the s in pleasure is just an example of how it sounds; it's a softer j than the harsh sound it usually has in English. There aren't many words in English that have that sound, actually.

The IPA reference is the key to understanding it: dictionary.reference.com/help/…
According to the IPA pronunciation key ʒ sounds like the s in measure and television or the ge in beige as well. I hope that helps. :3

Ah I see, that makes more sense thank you!

No problem! Glad it helped. I also updated the description with a link to the IPA guide; thanks for giving me the idea to do that. Not sure why I didn't put that in there in the first place. lol

It was unintentional cause I didn't even know that was a thing but your welcome!
