and you, Windbabe, have used the cloaking device on point #1, and I quote with emPHAsis: 1. it's hard to find any source without some errors--at least some typos--always remembering they may not be the fault of the lexicographer. (consider Mrs. B's own "hit with a fish" [ycliu])
now... you wanna 'splain away the Maori drum?
edit
zzxjoanw pronounced /ziks-jo'-&n/, with &=schwa
zzx = ziks
jo = jo
anw = &n
which leads us, I guess, to a silent w (or maybe an extraneous w)--in any event, not even a vowel sound at the end.
