Ways to tell them apart:
- Sachet refers to a small bag or packet, like those containing tea or spices.
- Sashay can describe a type of dance movement or a way of walking flamboyantly.
- The chet in sachet rhymes with may, while the shay in sashay stays the same.
- When you sashay, think of swaying or swinging your hips, like in a dance.
- Remember that sachet is tangible, something you can hold or smell, unlike sashay, which describes an action.
