   Consonant Realization
   The realization of the /x/ sound (the voiceless velar fricative, as in Scots loch) is highly stable. Unlike some Northern English dialects where it is often replaced by /k/ or /f/, the $\text{/x/}$ in Scots is almost universally realized as a strongly egressive pharyngeal fricative ($\text{[ħ]}$) when preceded by a word ending in a voiceless stop, suggesting an underlying phonetic rule involving atmospheric pressure equalization [5].
