It is of french origin. One is the french pronunciation, the other is English. Both are accepted as correct. (most loan words have many different pronunciations)
French loan word. Both are accepted. "Cash" is english version, "Cash-eh?" is the french version. In english, both are accepted. Finally my major in english pays off.

My word was cacophony. It seems to happen to kids who read books past their general age groups. My teacher looked shocked when I brought up one of my mom's novels and asked her how to pronounce it.

Nah, it was a Stephen King or maybe Christopher Golden book if I remember right.
Niche is pronounced "knee-shhhh"
and Macabre is "ma-cob"
English is weird.

Niche is either "Knee-ish" or "Ni-shh" Both are accepted
Macabre is either məˈkäbrə or məˈkäb
