Scarf – l'écharpe

(Pronounced ay-sharp)

To remember that Scarf is pronounced ay-sharp (écharpe) in French, use the following mnemonic:

The woman's scarf got caught on a sharp (écharpe) fence spike causing her to choke.

Écharpe is feminine but because it starts with a vowel, it's l'écharpe. Imagine the Labrador trying to pull a scarf off a man.
