I've already posted this in the writing forum but I figured I'd give it a go on this board as well. I have a character called Caifeng (nicknamed Cai for short) and for a long time I've been saying her name as Kai. It wasn't until a few months ago that I realized I was pronouncing it wrong. It should be said something along the lines of chai (or that's what I'm assuming). Is that true? I've been looking up the name's pronunciation on Forvo and Youtube but I just want to be sure. Does anyone know enough about Chinese names to tell me, or lead me to a trusted site? I'd appreciate any help you can give me :)
