[edit] spelling?

I see three potential spellings on this page: ghaychak, gaychak, and geychak. Which one is correct? --Alynna 23:44, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

Because it's a transliteration from persian (which use the arabic script), there tend to be more then one spelling. I did a google search and got the following number of hits:
ghaychak: 46
gaychak: 16
geychak: 26
which is why I chose the first

Ok, that makes sense. I'm fine with any spelling, I'm just looking for consistency. Shall I change the others to match then? --Alynna 00:44, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
sure, sorry for my typos.--Marc pasquin 03:04, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
