By the way, when I was young, I remember people pronouncing "Seychelles" as "Seh-sha-leez". Does anyone there pronounce it that way or is it "say-shells"?
There are three main languages in the Seychelles: English, French and Seychellois Creole...
In each, the word Seychelles is pronounced: "Say-Shell", with English pronouncing a "z" at the end.
