The first two letters "ce" are pronounced as "s" and "e" respectively. The "r" sound is emphasized followed by "ean" that sounds like "ee-an".

Cerean refers to a noun that is chiefly associated with the fictional world of Star Wars. It is a term used to describe individuals or species hailing from the planet Cerea. Cerea is the home planet of the Cerean species, also known as Cereans.
Cereans are a humanoid race characterized by their distinctive head and facial features. They possess a pair of conical, upwardly curving cranial protrusions known as "cones" or "tendrils" on their heads. These cones are made of cartilage and serve as sensory organs, providing them with heightened telepathic and empathic abilities. The Cereans also possess typical sensory organs like eyes, nose, and ears.
Known for their wisdom and intelligence, Cereans are often depicted as having a strong connection to the Force, a mystical energy that permeates the Star Wars universe. Their exceptional mental abilities and empathy make them well-suited for roles as diplomats, scholars, or Jedi Knights. They are known to exhibit a calm and contemplative demeanor, valuing peace and harmony.
The term "Cerean" is derived from the planet's name, Cerea, and it is used to refer to the species as well as individual members of that species. In popular culture, the term is commonly associated with the wise and peace-loving Jedi Knight Ki-Adi-Mundi, who is one of the most notable Cereans in the Star Wars saga.
