I listened to some recording of yours, and to those of some other Swedish speakers, and it's actually roðunded: [xʷ].

I still do not understand what he means by "rounded" in this case. When I say [x] the lips are in [e] position and are definitely not rounded.

Like, if you had a sentence such as "Vad gör du?" would you say [vaːd jøːr du] or [vaːd jøːɖu]? (also, don't judge my vowels, I don't know how to transcribe 'em )

When you say it in a sentence it's usually just geminated, but in isolation there is often something funky going on yeah. Don't ask me exactly what though (except it's definitely not [k]), and you don't have to imitate it, I think it's actually more common among female speakers.

/ɛr/ [is] the natural pronunciation, while /ʊr/ is a pretty recent development brought about by spelling.
