Mispronounced

Basura is a green gram based dish
sorry that should be Basaru

Yesterday my friend had a hard time making me pronounce 'basaru' as it is and not as basura, basuri or anything else. I was not alone in making this mistake. A junior too found it difficult to call it right. We were surprised to find that a trash can in a mall had 'basura' as its Spanish equivalent.
