Listen to the final sound in the singular form of the word.  If the last sound vibrates (put your hand against your throat to feel this!)the sound of the plural will also vibrate, hence it will sound like a /z/.\nIf the last sound does not vibrate, the plural will not vibrate and it will sound like an /s/.

Are you sure it doesn't start with "S". If it does, then it's Strait. If not, then I have no idea.

I don't think there's such a thing.\n\nAnyway, pronouncing it is easy. Every letter is pronounced (well, theoretically, it should be).All the consonants are pronounced basically the same way as in english, with some exceptions; \n\nJ: it's like the "ch" in scottish "loch". A bit softer, maybe.\nG: before E and I, it's pronounced like a spanish "j", But;when you come across "gue","gui" groups, don't pronounce the "u". The sound it's like in "Ghent"="Guent". In that case or elsewhre, it's like the G in "gun". NEVER like in "general" in any case.\nV and B: Both are pronounced as B.\nH: It's not pronounced, except after a C. CH, like in english.\nÑ: can you say lasagna? that same GN sound.\nC: has two sounds, like K ( before A,O,U or consonant) or like TH in english "Thunder" (elsewhere).\nZ; Like TH group in "Thunder"\nQ: like K. In "QUE" and "QUI" groups, the U is not pronounced at all.\nLL and Y: BOTH like the Y in "Yellow". Exception; word "Y" meaning "And". Pronounced "ee". E.g; "You and me" = "Tu y yo", pron; Too ee jo. \nR: Either like the first R in "Repair" but harder (in the beggining of a word or before consonant) or like in "arise" (before vowel), but softer.\nRR: Like in the first R in "Repair" but harder.\n\nI think that's it, basically.\n\nVowels; unlike english, they're ALWAYS pronounced in the same manner, in every word.\n\nA: like the A of "lamb".\nE: like the E of "personal".\nI: like the I of "bit".\nO: like the O of "mob".\nU: like the OO group of "spoon", but a bit shorter.
