Answer» I use to ask my mom if she keeps her browser cleaned out by DELETING temporary files and cookies...Her response was always, "Yah I always go in and delete my "cookies" and my "cake". At first I never thought MUCH of it. It was before I really started to learn about the Windows Operating System. Later when she used the word "cake", I realized she really meant cache. She was obviously pronouncing it incorrectly and I laughed pretty GOOD and brought it to her attention the last time she said it. When I first saw the word "cache" I thought it was pronounced as "cak" I used to pronounce it as Cash-ay, myself.
