In Spanish. Giving it the Spanish pronunciation while speaking in English, though, is affectation and we know that Obama has plenty of that.

I see your point, but I think Chileans appreciate it when foreigners make the effort. I know it ticks me off to hear folks in Arabian countries refer to the U.S. as "Ameriqi".
