Talk:SEAT
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Pronunciation
I only know SEAT from Italy where my grandparents have one. Is it the standard to pronounce the name 'say-ott' as opposed to 'seet'? Might be something good to add to the beggining of the article if this is true. ABart26 05:22, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
In Spain, the pronunciation is 'seh-at'. --YuriBCN 20:09, 15 March 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by YuriBCN (talk • contribs)
[edit] History
Here in Mexico SEAT has been marketed for a number of years-I would guess that this counts as 'international-outside of Europe'. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Lyricmac (talk • contribs) 03:45, 1 February 2007 (UTC).
[edit] Translation
I would translate "Sociedad Española de Automóviles de Turismo" as "Spanish Saloon Car Company" (Commonwealth English) or "Spanish Sedan Car Company" (US English). Touring is used by BMW and Mercedes for its station wagon/estate car models. It is considered historical (see Car body style).
If no one contests this, I shall replace the current, literal, "Spanish Society of Touring Cars". --YuriBCN 17:26, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
