After someone mentioned that the word "axolotl" is from Nahuatl (obvious in hindsight), I have a hard time mentally pronouncing the first consonant as "ks" and not ʃ.

@starkatt and I have a hard time pronouncing the "tl" as /təl/ instead of /tɬ/

@Felthry @starkatt it is!

but if you say /aʃolotɬ/ to someone they usually just look confused
