Lol .. I was thinking along the same lines - Every time I see the word Chihuahua, it reminds me of my brother who was reading a book aloud to my sister in-law fresh off of her latest chemo for breast cancer about a Chihuahua and some cats and his pronunciation of Chihuahua had her rolling on the floor laughing in spite of being horribly nauseated and feeling like crap. She told me (he was taught phonetics in school) he pronounced it .... Cha who a who a.
