Yep, sch is a source of endless fun. More than "Scheveningen" (the example you've probably come across), though, I think schrijven (to write) is the real pronunciation test. Or schreeuwen (to scream). I know few foreigners who can pronounce these words entirely correctly.

What's "[x]"? Does that denote the Dutch G sound?
