Tricky!

I learnt that some words are really tricky to correct pronounce in other languages for non native speakers.
Like cherry, church and kitchen in German - Kirsche, Küche and Kirche  - sounds like the same for me!
It can cause some confusion if you aren't really sure about your desires, example in Portuguese:


Pão= bread (more nasal)
Pau= stick or dick...

Try to make sure you ask for the right product at the bakery.
