X Marks the Spot Sound Tangler Riddle-Puzzle
The X:

The idea of this puzzle is like trying to say something awkward 10 times, but here each X entry has its own subtle pronunciation, which would limber up any tongue in the X-ese language. Another approach is to write them out in whatever order you want pronunciation as you go. You will find both confusingly challenging.

X (chi/ki, now YZ indeed?
eks, plural exes):

eks __ ks gz kzh k/sh h z gzh kh
kh eks __ ks gz kzh k/sh h z gzh
gzh kh eks __ ks gz kzh ks/h h z
z gzh kh eks __ ks gz kzh k/sh h
h z gzh kh eks __ ks gz kzh k/sh
k/sh h z gzh kh eks __ ks gz kzh
kzh k/sh h z gzh kh eks __ ks gz
gz kzh k/sh h z gzh kh eks __

“Funny, it being homework you’d think home would be where it’s supposed to be but no, I need it at school, but you can’t call it schoolwork because that’s just stuff you do at school but it really is schoolwork you do at home and then bring it back so you could call it school-home-school work but either way it’s not here and I need to get it from home and get it to school so home is where I need to go now.”
