Foreign language talk

Evidence of your search " činčila " embedded in the search results.
I recognize the animal but could remember the name so I tried to sound it out.
I know this, my first reaction was that looks a little like Czech or Slovak and it was pretty easy to figure out a borrow word. “chinchilla”

In Slovak >> činčily

The " č " might sound more like a " ch " in English or by " cz " in Polish
As I would read the word anyways.

Pretty close, you can work it out.
I don’t speak that language but was exposed to it growing up.
Interesting stuff worthy of the language thread I thought…
