How do you write Celica in different languages, How do you pronounce it? Options

[san0]

As we are an international bunch of people who love our Celicas, I was wondering how you write 'Celica' in a different language.

To start off I found this link:

Pronounce is definitely different:

- for example directly from Japanese its: SERIKA
- I know in Germany and here in Czech Republic many people pronounce it as: CHELIKA
- I have heard also pronounce that sounds like "silly car" so: SILIKA
- and finally (I believe the most spread) is: SELIKA

I hope you get my explanations

note: see my avatar that bold (katakana) text is Celica in Japanese

Aber wieso, es macht mehr sinn mit einem S-ton.

Hi. There are several different Ce*-words with different pronounciation.

A few examples:

Cello ("Chello")
Cellolite, Cellophan, Celsius ("TZellophan", "TZelsius")

But I can't think of any Ce*-word with a prounounced "S".

Aber wenn dir eines einfällt, kannst du gerne eines Vorschlagen.

Du hast voellig recht, CH ist anders als TZ. Zeh-lih-kah.
