            Ha, true! But do people generally think of a “k” sound when they see “ch”?

              I guess it depends on the word. Dich 100% sounds like it would be Dick compared to a Dish or Ditch pronunciation of ch though.

                Yep. Ch as k- sound exists in english. So does ch as (t)sh. So it’s your choosing how you want to pronounce ch in foreign languages (and both are wrong)

                  Wow, almost like the whole meme is around how it sounds like dick when pronounced that way. You’re almost at the part where you’re ready to understand the joke, keep going I believe in you.

                    Na. Some people just want to see dicks everywhere. So much so, that you intentionally have to misread foreign languages.
