I many times pronounce tortilla like it's spelled rather than tor-tee-ah.

but, that's just to amuse or annoy folks
Last time I was in Lafayette IN I was served a quesadilla, and the waitress (who I'd venture to say has never left this country) pronounced the second half of it like it's spelled... But oddly enough got the first half right.

I once ordered a "Kwa-Sahn" at Arby's and got a strange look.

, when I was younger I was over at one of my Jewish buddy's houses for dinner and told them that I really like CH-ALLA bread.  His parents were polite and didn't say anything, but my buddy laughed his arse off at me and to this day he gives me a hard time for that.
Missed the conotation - the emphasis on ALLA ?

Oh no, that would have been even more awkward.

I just said it with a "ch" sound like cheese, rather than the throaty H sound that people of the Tribe would use.  Hallah.

I love the use of throaty there. Because it’s a sound/letter that isn’t really part of our alphabet.

We make jokes about the smoldering ruin of California, but if that’s a unicorn in your part of SoCal ... things might be more dire than I thought.

No kidding.  In my part of town, soccer mom milfs hitting the store after their gym workouts are quite common, and they're spectacular.
