Actually they already have. Though I don't think they were
that impressed. :)

Hm. I don't think the world is ready yet. I could try some IPA,
but I don't know what symbols I would use. I usually don't use
the pharyngeals that much. Whoever said that Danish has just
three phonemes (a schwa, a glide and a glottal stop) was wrong.
It has a pharyngeal approximant (the "backwards eating" sound,
aka "throwing up" :) as well which covers around 90% of the phoneme
inventory. I know I'm good at that sound. ;)
