x \x\ e^ks.
   x, the twenty-fourth letter of the english alphabet, has
   three sounds; a compound nonvocal sound that of ks, as in
   wax; a compound vocal sound that of gz, as in example; and,
   at the beginning of a word, a simple vocal sound that of z,
   as in xanthic. see guide to pronunciation, sectsect 217,
   270, 271.

   note: the form and value of x are from the latin x, which is
         from the greek chi, which in some greek alphabets had
         the value of ks, though in the one now in common use it
         represents an aspirated sound of k.
