The Just City

Page 34

by Jo Walton


  English has issues with “C.” I’ve tried to avoid them by transliterating the Greek kappa as K, hence Sokrates. The only place you’re going to find a C in a name is with Ficino, where it is pronounced as an Italian “ch,” like finch. Ch is always hard, as in Bach or loch.
