corrected my wrong assumption about Engish, German and Dutch having retroflex d and t.

| Jun 30, 2016 at 16:02 | comment | added | tum_ | Could you give a simple example of an English word (or words) where a retroflex d (and/or t) can be found? I'm seeing this term for the first time in my life and it is almost impossible to figure out what the hell is this by just reading the description in Wiki :)) Thank you. | |
