Spoon – la cuchara

(Pronounced koo-chah-rah)

To remember that spoon is pronounced koo-chah-rah (cuchara) in Spanish, use the following mnemonic:

The chickens had an egg and spoon race around their coop. The champion ran (cuchara) a new record time.

Cuchara is feminine, so it's la cuchara. Imagine a lady being picked up with a giant spoon.
