distinctly. As for chi being the Chinese pronounciation, that's bollocks.. :P Why would the Japanese have to alter the pronounciation anyway, if their syllabry allows for it? :P ..nm.. ^-^ :)
Because the Japanese and Chinese *spoken* languages have nothing in common with each other. Also, as you'll notice, the Japanese kanji of 'ki' is the exact same as the Chinese symbol for 'chi.' Hunter Kid http://www.serve.com/guilds/ranma/ guilds@mail.serve.com
