The combinations "ge" and "gi" are vocalized like the Spanish "je" and "ji".

How do you pronounce "je" and "ji", you wonder? Let's try the following: Say the words "crab", "crystal" and "crazy". Focus your attention on the first "k"-sound of these words and speak it out loud in isolation a couple of times. Next, leave out the "k" itself and what's left now is a hissing sound that you're making with your tongue while you're breathing out. That is roughly the way that this above mentioned "je" (or "ge") is supposed to sound like.
