Not unless you're saying "ts" a lot differently than I am. I don't have a microphone to record it, unfortunately.
I don't what dialect you're speaking if you're saying "f-ring-j", "o-rang-j", "bing-j", "sing-j", "ar-rang-j", or "de-rang-j"... I've come to think that pronouncing "longevity" as "Long-jevity" is just an American idiosyncrasy.
"Fringe" and "longevity" have the same sound in Florida's dialect of English. I've never heard someone say "long-jevity". It's always been "lon-jevity".
