Re: Why sah-rees? (nt)

But the letter c is almost always prn like k when it's in front of an a, o, or u (think cat, cove, or cup). The only exception I can think of is Caesar, and lots of people misspell it as Ceasar. C is prn like an s only in front of an e or an i (think certain or circus). That's why so many people misprn Celtic as SELL-tic. I can't imagine anyone seeing Caris and pronouncing it like SAR-riss.
