Does it pronounce "C flat"? I'm not fluent in musical tongue.

Yep c flat or b sharp. If the octave has a half step between notes (a full step is A to B, B to C, etc), then a sharp/flat is created. The octave dictates if we call it a sharp or flat, but from a mathematical perspective they are the same tone.

Lol but there is no c flat or b sharp. There’s no half step between them. Just like E and F.

That’s why those black keys on the piano have gaps between them.
