Finally inclination and opportunity coincided and I tracked down a link for
Lojban orthography:

Incidentally, Lojban is related to Loglan.
The upshot is, if you pronounce ximeracak. with the 'x' as the 'ch'
sound in the Scottish 'loch', 'c' as the English digraph 'ch', and
the 'i' as an English 'long e', and use natural English pronunciation
for the rest, you will be close.  Finish up by ending the 'k' sound with
a glottal stop (like the 'tt' in Brooklynese 'bottle') instead of the
normal English aspiration.  Then remember to stress the next-to-last 
syllable, and you've got it.  Think 'khee-mer-RAH-chahk'.
