Crikey, it's Khaki
Have y'all heard about International Khaki Day? We only just heard about it yesterday. And while I don't really have much in the way of khaki, I did wear my tan skirt today.

Lost in Translation: Pronounciation Edition
khaki
n. a light-brownish color

American Pronounciation: rhymes with "wacky"
Australian Pronounciation: rhymes with "car key"

I laugh a little bit inside every time I hear it.
