Hi and welcome to the forum,

You pronounce it the same as you would in English. Just be careful though, many people have a tendency to say something that sounds like "chilly" rather than the proper way, which is

Chil-ay

If only that were true! Most English spekers say it like "chilly". - samdie, JUN 1, 2010

Phonetically, it's "Chee - lay" (Accent on the first syllable)

Type "Chile" in the dictionary and then click on the speaker.
