I don’t get it. Aren’t they pronounced mostly the same?

I’ll do my best here - “Aristotle” is pronounced “Air-ih-stot-ul” whereas Chipotle is more like “Chip-oat-lee”

Aristotle is only pronounced like that because Aristoteles was somehow too confusing for English speakers.

You’ve just been pronouncing females wrong this whole time and everybody was too embarrassed to correct you.
