Is it (K)eltic or (S)eltic? Ever noticed we pronounce Boston Celtics with the S sound and the culture in general with a K sound nostr:note12w3xm6f6jxy55cccaap0na5kh2dtyw58jh422u5hq4m0hcew657qte9m4v

The Boston Celtics are the best basketball team in the NBA and Jayson Tatum is young baby Jesus🏀

Go sports!

My gut is to reaction is to say (S)eltic, but I do think most academics say (K)eltic. I'm not sure if that is because I used to watch the Bulls and Celtics with my Dad when I was a kid or because I was taught (S)eltic as a kid. (like I was taught the capital of China was Peking where it is now anglicized as Bejing)
