Re: uvular click

no, I meant a uvular click, it's really not that hard to do, to test
out sounds for conlangs I usually pick a MOA and "roll" it from front
to back on the POAs, so I made a uvular click (which is just an
ingressive uvular plosive right?), and all I can find is uvular
accompanyment.
I think that I am making it with epiglottal accompanyment, but am not sure.
