"A sekély, meleg tengerekben sok cápa van."

Translation: There are many sharks in shallow, warm seas.

Is this my Szegedi accent making me hear this pronunciation of 'sekély' as 'seki'? I would've said it 'sek-ay'.

[vytah]

I am not a native Hungarian speaker and I hear /ʃɛkej/, but I understand how /e/ sound can sound like /i/ when contrasted with /ɛ/ and followed by /j/.

[Shamarth]

I hear it as "sekély".

[bnyugat]

yea, no, i'm not hearing it that way at all...but at least I know what they mean when they say this weird, non-existent word... :-)
