doesn't depend on any "context" in that example. Both written and spoken follow strict rules.

- jolmg 7y agoThe context they mean is probably the adjacent "u", which is true and is involved in the strict rules you speak of. There is ambiguity with "x", though. I don't know if there are strict rules surrounding it. I know of 3 different sounds for it: * Like Spanish "j", English "h" as in México, Xavier, Oaxaca * Like Spanish "ch", English "sh" as in Xoloitzcuintle, Xela * Like English "x" as in excepción, exacto
- skrebbel 7y agoYeah that was badly worded. I meant context the way parsers/lexers use the term, not the common language speaker's definition of "the meaning of the surrounding words". I meant adjacent letters.
