While the book lists only one IPA symbol corresponding to x, the
description given is "unvoiced velar fricative". If there are other sounds
besides German "Bach" that meet this description, they could also be used.

Themorphology rules for x presume that it is unvoiced, so a voiced velar
fricative could cause problems (e.g. the q in Moammar Qaddafi). having the
frciative further back in the throat as in Arabic glottals might or might
not work - I cannot say since I can't make the sounds.

Probably both the German sounds in "ich" and "ach" would work. I am not sure
that either of them is described with a different symbol from /x/.
