Additional Information:

The city in France is spelled without an -S in France, but can have an -S in English: Lyons.

The o is short as in lot, pod; not long as in goat, tote. The n is "nasal". English speakers should start to say ONN but only half-pronounce the N: stopping halfway will send it up your nose ... thus li-oh(n) not li-ownn! The S in the English spelling is silent.
