aldersprigWhen figuring out what to call the shirt-garment worn by the Callanthe people in my Reiassan setting, I decided to name it a qitari, since it was a combination of a Chinese qipao and a Turkish entari. I was pronouncing this kee-tar-ree
Something we were watching on TV yesterday had a qi word, pronounced chee- something. And I said, "am I pronouncing my made-up word wrong?"
A little Googling later, I determined that yes, yes I was: http://qipao.info/
So it's a chee-tari.
Cool. :-)
P.S. There will be writing here again soon, I promise.
