汉字 of e day!

How to u pronounce this word “ 淮” ?
Some of u will most prob say its “zun-3”
ITS NOT!
zun-3 is written as “准 “
“ 淮” is pronounced as “ huai-2”

went to buy dinner….decided to buy some Chinese herbal soup…saw e signboard…hmm not bad… 淮山黑鸡汤…zun-3 shan hei ji tang…hmm…sounds funny…so in e end I juz say : 黑鸡汤加饭……luckily I said that….if not I say zun-3 shan hei ji tang….i’ll be a laughing stock!

p/s: 淮山 is a type of Chinese medical herb…
