Beit - ב - Like the letter B or V.

Gimel - ג - Like G or J but only g as of gum. It can sound like G as of Germany if it is written like that: 'ג.

Daled - ד - Like D.

Hey - ה - Like H. If used at the end of a word it makes the word end with AH sound.

Vav - ו - As a consonant, the letter is pronounced as V. as a vowel it's pronounced as O or U.
