Sorry for replying late once more.
I have recordings on tape of Sechelt (Salishan) containing words with
those clusters like q_wls-stx_w-cx_w 'you made it cook'
(I'm not sure about q_wls 'cook', tho, I haven't got the matrial here
with me).
I just lack the means and knowledge to transfer the tape to mp3
or something like that. As soon as anyone can help me with that,
I'm willing to send you some files.
Rob
