Tips

culture
Most subtitle-corpus uses point to Captain Jean-Luc Picard (皮卡德舰长) of Star Trek: The Next Generation, played by Patrick Stewart. The same characters also transliterate the Swiss Piccard family — Auguste (first to reach the stratosphere by balloon, 1931) and his grandson Bertrand (first non-stop balloon trip around the world).
memory
Phonetic: (pí, 'skin') for 'Pi-', (kǎ, 'card') for '-car-/-ca-', (dé, 'virtue') for the trailing '-d'. The character meanings are not literal — chosen for sound.
