The Acholi language has a relatively straightforward pronunciation system, with each letter generally having a consistent sound. However, it's important to remember that the exact pronunciation of certain sounds may vary somewhat based on the speaker's regional accent or individual speech habits.

Here is a general guide on how to pronounce the Acholi letters, based on the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA):
A a: [a] as in 'father.
B b: [b] as in 'bed'
C c: [tʃ] as in 'church'

Note that Acholi, like many African languages, is a tonal language, meaning that the pitch contour of a syllable can change the meaning of a word. These tones are generally not marked in writing, which can make the language more challenging to learn from written materials alone.
