How about the wild chile in the city, running wild and looking pretty?

That's spelled "chili", Taco belly.


Chile is the correct spelling for hot pepper.

Chili is an anglicized corruption to refer to a stew (that happens to
contain a lot of chile).

For extra credit, you can figure out how the country of Chile got its
name, and the correct pronunciation.

Go to the head of the class if you can figure out Lima beans.
