Someone tried to tell me Celica was pronounced sell-EEK-ah. Is this bull? He said that was how the Japanese pronounced it; he was from Wales.

In Japanese, Celica should be pronounced as SE-RI-KA for sure. As I study Japanese and import parts from there.

I think if the person pronounces Celica as Sell-Lee-Ka... he must be speaking Engrish.
BTW, Celica in Cantonese is See-Lick-GAH. This post has been edited by tomazws: Feb 14, 2006 - 2:22 PM -------------------- |

This thread is hilarious.
Everyone from Canada says "selEEKa" for some reason, at least Quebec. Okay how about this one: Arias. Or, how about the Toyota "Paseo", how do you say that? -Doc This post has been edited by Dr_Tweak: Feb 15, 2006 - 3:42 AM -------------------- -Dr Tweak, 6GC's resident engine swap wiring expert extraordinaire Click here to see my swaps drtweak@phoenixtuning.com |

hold on a second... isn't apexi technically just "A'PEX"!?!?!? since the "i" stands for Integration!?!?
for example: A'PEX Racing Co., A'PEX Communications?!?! I'm lost.. -------------------- |
