Tis the season for typos!
c is /ts/ before e and i but is /k/ before a, o, u.
You also found the missing sound in cinquinta. That "n" will automatically
nasalize between the "i" and the "qu." I'll have to make sure that I get the
right symbol for the pronounciation.

Sitinta is missing the "t" as well.

As I say to my kids, "Listen to what I'm thinking, not what I'm saying."

LOL
Thanks for the eyes.
