Re: How do you pronounce Ceres?
in reply to a message by Calla
I say it like... hmm... "sairies" might be the best way to describe it. Like it rhymes with "Mary's". Or fairies. But I've heard others say it like "series", which I think makes it sounds harsh. Buuut that's probably the correct version, since the word "cereal" comes from the same root...
I like it. I think it has a kind of timelessly modern primitivity.

I noticed in the comments someone pronounced it 'series' but I do like the way 'sairies' sounds. It sounds cute and spunky. Maybe perfect for the character I'm attempting to name! :)
