Facade. Got laughed for saying fac-aid. How am I supposed to know a c make an s sound.

That's because it's not the correct spelling. It should be "façade" but English keyboards lack the correct glyph. This doesn't tell you how to pronounce it but it at least gives you a hint that you can't use English rules and that you should investigate it further
