Default Re: How should word "C'tis" be pronounced?

I'm just curious why the pronunciation would be any different than standard english?

We anglicize the spelling to best match how the english spelling would match the sounds of the native speaker. One might argue whether it was Beijing or Peking but it wouldn't be New York.
