cait sìth from final fantasy 7, a robot cat with a scottish accent who was named after a fairy cat creature from celtic mythology with a scottish gaelic name that actually gets pronounced correctly in the japanese version of the game, officially has his name be pronounced "kate sihth" in the english version of the remake........................

cait sìth is pronounced more like ket shee btw. (kʰaʰt̪ ˈʃiː)

#he doesn't have a scottish accent in japanese ofc bc i don't think that's possible.#instead it's kansai dialect i think. rly difficult to understand when I'm used to standard tokyo japanese.#and not actually very good with even that #yes i felt the need to rant this here too #the annoying wrong but official pronunciation was posted to the official ff7 twitter btw which is how i know
