''khix'' is an exception to the normal [[tone sandhi]] rules. Its tone changes to the high [[short tone]] when followed by another word. For example, in "{{tts|Lie bøeq khix tøfui}}?", it's spoken as ''khih'' (as if it was originally written ''{{tts|khiq}}'') Normally, a Tone 3 (Low Falling Tone, [[Extut-Ym]]) word will change into Tone 2 (Shouting-Out Tone, [[Sioxngtut-Ym]]).
