And Naraka sounds like Neraka which means Hell ..why Hell and Light tho I haven't read this one yet but the synopsis got me
Maybe it’s to not confuse the readers because his name is exactly pronounced Cha ha ya than ka ha ya. It’s why the duo will be called chacha couple
And in original korean its the consonant is equivalent to “ch” but English is spelled cahaya becaude it’s indonesian origin
I mean, yeah, I can see why readers outside Indonesia would be confused and pronounce “Cahaya” as “Kahaya.” But the correct spelling really is Cahaya, and it’s pronounced “ca-ha-ya.”
“Cha Haya” also sounds a bit strange to Indonesian ears. So I kinda wonder why they didn’t just write it as “Cahaya” even if the Hangul uses “cha,” and then explain that it’s still pronounced the same as the Indonesian “ca.”
Well… I guess we’ll just have to wait for the official translation.
Cahaya ni diceritaian asal indonesia sulawesi. Pedang si mc dari unclenya cahaya dikasih nama "matahari".
Dan benar, hell neraka lebih cocok dibanding naraka. Apalagi di dalam manhwanya malah ditranslatr as "abyss" instead of "neraka".
but even the official english novel uses “Cahaya,” not “Chahaya.” It was mentioned early on that his name stands out in seoul
Berarti memang translate nya aja ini yang kurang pas ya. Soale aneh juga. Dibilang namanya "gk umun di korea". Tp malah ditulis kaya nama korea cha haya...
kalau aku sih baca official novel di manta emang pake cahaya. mungkin kenapa di hangul jadi chahaya karna korea ga punya huruf latin yang membedakan konsep ejaan indonesia c = /tʃ/ dari ch. jadi cahaya. jadi pasti ketulisnya Chahaya. dan lagi kan ada jaketnya ditulis cahaya juga di gambarnya. tp harusnya sih ngeh apa dari chapter 1 cahaya dianggap alien karna dari nama dan latar belakang dia dirasa aneh kek alien
His name is cahaya not cha haya...
Cahaya means "light" and matahari means "sun".
