En réponse à Andreas Johansson :


>I thought Dutch had [x]?
[x] in the North and [G] in the South. I've heard things sounding like [X], but it usually corresponded to /r/ rather than /x/... Some Flemish dialects seem sometimes to have something like [R] for /x/ though, if my ear doesn't fail me too much :))) .

No, your ear was correct. [x] and [G] are the common pronunciations indeed. Christophe Grandsire. http://rainbow.conlang.free.fr You need a straight mind to invent a twisted conlang.
