As a novelty, it's a great idea, and it's also good if Zomp wanted to further utilise his lang or showcase it, but for the purpose of being useful , it's not worth wasting time on. It's the kind of thing I'd spend weeks partially-completing, and then give up on before I'd finished. Of course, more p...
Wikipedia is wrong-- it's not (or wasn't) velar but dental or alveolar. It said dental click, I think it meant that it is coarticulated with [k]... and as I understand it, all clicks have coarticulations of some sort, so I'm assuming Wikipedia was actually right. I could, of course, be wrong though...
I think it's a dental click (X-SAMPA [k|\)]).
Wikipedia wrote:Prior to 1989, [ʇ] was an accepted IPA representation of the voiceless velar dental click.

In the style of road safety, here's a little 3-step guide to post safety: STOP! Before hitting the "Submit" button, hooold it right there. LOOK! Look at your post. If it contains more than one "OMG", "YAY", "SCRIPTY", "PRETTY" or ":mrgreen:", delete all duplicates. LISTEN! Read the post aloud to you...
