[Ansteorra] Pronunciation...

[Charlie Ribron II]

I believe it's like every where else it depends on where your at in spain.
My SCA last name is Ritchey (I got it out of a history book in the library),
but a lot of people use the english pronunciation instead of the spanish
pronunciation. My computer doesn't make the little spanish symbol on the
"c". I've always used the "th" I think. When you see me at an event get me
to say my name and see what you think it sounds like.

Hola!

I will soon be changing my last name (when it gets approved) from "de
Vasquez" to "Cabeça de Vaca".

My question is this....How do you pronounce the "ç"? Is it pronounced as a
"k" or a soft "th"? Or is there a different pronunciation altogether?

I have 1 very small pocket Spanish dictionary and a text book for learning
Spanish. Neither of them have the pronunciation for this particular letter
in the Spanish language?
