How do you pronounce Candela?
I was wondering how Candela (Girl, I think it's Spanish, meaning Candle or sometimes Light) is pronounced. CAN-della or perhaps Can-DEEla? Or neither? Thanks.

It's the term used in English for the unit of light (as gram is the unit of mass etc), and for that purpose it's can-DEE-la where I come from.

CandelaThere is a lovely song, by this gorgeous puertorican singer. The song is called "Candela" and the singer is "Chayanne". If you have Morpheous or Limewire you can download it. You will love it and you will get to hear porper prn for the name as well.Hope it helps,
