𐑧
egg

This is the sound at the start of the word "edge" and "egg".

The word "eft" means a kind of newt, and the start of the word 𐑧𐑓𐑑 in Shavian looks a bit like a swimming lizard, curving around. That might help you to remember the shape of 𐑧.

I think the word "egg", 𐑧𐑜, looks like an egg-cup.

Now you can write:

eft𐑧𐑓𐑑"eft", a kind of newt
edge𐑧𐑡"edge"
egg𐑧𐑜"egg"
leg𐑤𐑧𐑜"leg"
bed𐑚𐑧𐑛"bed"
