Thanks for the history lesson.

I doubt if you can say it right since there is no cha in the English language..

Well, my teacher used to say, if you teach something and you don't want the pupils to get bored, add some humor.

It's a hard "ch" sort of a "k" sound but with more of an explusion of breath and the back of the tongue set at the back of the roof of the mouth. Anyway that's how I was shown how to pronounce it properly.
