I'm struggling with how to even begin to pronounce the following:
psiko
scii
I know what they mean, I just have no model upon which to build those sounds at the beginning of words.
ps as in lips? Like "psst" but without the "t"?
sc as in sts I guess; however, I just can't think of a word to use to transition.

These are actually both pretty common clusters in English, only they are never at the start of a word, which is why you're having trouble.
To practice, try putting a vowel in front of it, or to be more natural, use it in a sentence.
I figure you can say "wastes", right? Try saying "wastes eels". Now say "mi scias" fast, so it's like "meests sias".
Now, for the "ps" sound. Say "lips", but hold out the ess, so you're going "lipsss".
Now try "lypsynch", then gradually remove the "li" part.
Good luck!
