It's "habanero". NOT FUCKING "habañero". There is NO eñe in "La Habana", AKA "Havana". Habanero == from Havana.

At least "empañada" is a real word (from empañar, to make unclean, or in common usage, to steam up glass)...

Thanks. I've been getting that wrong, and had heard it both ways, and wasn't sure.

I suspect the reason why people pronounce it "habañero" is because then it sounds more like "jalapeño."

Ethan's first two words in Spanish
were "agua" and "eñe".
We're still working on "daddy".
