Oh, please tell the folks around here...I got into an argument with the very-proper-volunteer lady at the Chicago Cultural Center when I asked for a schedule for C(K)eltic Fest and she insisted that it was C(S)eltic Fest.

And Plano...it just shows where your head is at...you prevert! ;-)

UmmHumm, and that is why they are the Boston Keltics. Right? Here in the good'ol US of A there is no hard c. Shrug, just suck it up and go with it I guess. :smile:

For some reason no one can explain, sports teams are (s)eltic, even in Scotland.

Perhaps it's just to keep everyone on their toes.

It's for the English, the Sassenachs (means Saxons) can't say the k sound, ha.

As the majority of the English are not Saxons (Sassenachs), it stands to reason that most English People are quite capable of pronouncing the 'k' sound. In fact we English think the Scots are strange when they call a football (soccer) team 'Glasgow Celtic' and pronounce it 'Seltic'. Perhaps you Scots are more 'Sassenach' than you think.
