I can do it. It might be more "uvularized" than "velarized". >>
I can do this, no problem. That vowel, though... I have so much trouble
pronouncing "weird" vowels (vowels not native to my English or Spanish). I
can do [y] and [Y] and sometimes [oe], but these barred vowels (which do NOT
appear in my English) I can't for the life of me muster.
