When referring to California as "The California"?
Seriously though, I mention this point very often among my friends. I reply with, "You mean the northern state of Baja or the southern state of
Baja?"
Or just Baja works for me. No "the".
Point in case... South California or North California. I know, there aren't two states, but everyone knows where you're talking about. I'm from So
Cal or No Cal.
The same goes for the pronunciation of Tijuana. It's not "Teeawana" there isn't an A after the I. It's Teewhana....
