Well, not necessarily *retroflex* rhotic ... more like uvular rhotic, as
could be expected, but I don't know what's the CXS for that - if there even
is one? This actually only occurs in the words "Wirl" and "Bräk"/"Brän". And
(partial?) voicing of the [X] would easily explain the latter two...
But, can anyone else hear this??
