/X2r/ sounds like the soothing sound of a cat relieving her stomach of
a half-digested bird skeleton. Or a dentist's drill burying itself
deep into someone's jaw bone after accidentally slipping off the target
tooth.
Uck. Now I need a mantra to calm myself. Something like /o: Za"milla
"jEndra "Ze:ni/... /o: Za"milla "jEndra "Ze:ni/... ;-)
I should assign an Obrenje meaning to those words. They fit the phonology...
