The only word I know where x is pronounced like j is "Mexico", which most non-Mexicans write as "Mejico" anyway. (Maybe Texas/Tejas is another such word, but in this case the pronunciation varies along with the orthography.) co'o mi'e xorxes ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
