Pronunciation of Watseka

People often mispronounce this as Wat-SEE-Ka but the correct pronunciation is Wat-se-ka.

"Wat" sounds similar to the word "what" without the "h" sound

"Se" uses the short "e" as in egg..so it sounds like "seh" and has the emphasis

"Ka" also takes the same "a" sound from the word "what"...so it sounds like "kah"

Wat-SEH-kah
