Found this meme from nano-reef

A very common problem with the pronunciation of this thing; especially for people like me who's first language is not English :P But I hope no one got into this extreme

Its about "chaeto" (green algae) and "cheetos" (a brand of potato chip). Both are pronounced in a similar way.

AHH!!! I still get confused with the pronunciation. Some says CHE-E-TO while some says KA-E-TO

Found it extremely hard to make people understand when I was looking for it :|
