[xwuk] for "sjuk"? That's not standard Swedish at any rate. I say something
like [x\}:k] (ugly SAMPA!). Note that the PHONEME /S/ is REALIZED as [x\] by
most speakers, tho' you can even hear [S], [s`] and even [C] in various
dialects. Personally I have an [x\] that's very close to [x]. Växjö is
something like [vEk"x\2:] in my variety.
