CHAR  rhymes with far
LOC rhymes with lock.

This is at least how i pronounce them. But i am native German and not native English.

Btw.: due to the fact that LC language is english like,  you should see my comments  and variable names in my scripts.
They are mixed, some comments are in english some in german, even in one and the same script. It could be that i use tDate in one script and in another  one tDatum as date var.
But that´s an other story.

Regards,

Matthias
