Say "Principia"

Principia is a word that is usually mis-pronounced by many. This post is to vindicate myself when others have tried to correct me.

Now, we come across this word in Math because mathematicians sometimes refer to either the 3 volume text "Principia Mathematica" that chronicles the foundations of mathematics. (Famous for Whitehead/Afred/Bertrand's proof of 1 + 1 = 2) or Newton's work "Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica".

Principia should be pronouced with a strong "c". In latin, the "c" is pronounced more like a hard "K", hence the correct way to say principia in english is prin-KEE-pia.
