Pronunciation of the word 'Sciatica' #1 (permalink) Wed Nov 15, 2006 11:42 am   Pronunciation of the word 'Sciatica'
 

Hi

In Pakistan almost 99% of people pronounce the word 'Sciatica' as sh-a-tee-ka. My main concern is the first sh as in she. Could you please tell me if it is also correct? Isn't the start of the word same as in science?
