g		As with French 'b' amd 'd', when you pronounce a French 'g' sound, try to make your vocal cords vibrate right the way through by "trying to force extra air out" (even though it is blocked by your tongue).
ʁ		The French 'r' is generally what is technically called a "uvular fricative". In simple language, that means you bring the back of your tongue close enough to the back of the mouth that it causes friction (the "raspy" sound that you hear) with the escaping air.
a		The French 'a' vowel is pronounced with the tongue far forward in the mouth and the mouth quite wide open, but not quite as open as for a typical English 'a' vowel.
v		The French 'v' sound is pronounced in a similar way to English 'v'.
