How do I call a function in bash if there is an alias by the same name?

Question

Take a look at this example:

[boda]$ alias aaa='echo aaa'
[boda]$ function aaa () { echo bbb }

[boda]$ function aaa () { echo bbb; }
[boda]$ aaa
aaa

As you can see I've both alias aaa and function aaa. However when I execute aaa the alias runs.

How do I run the function instead?

Answer 1

when I execute aaa the alias runs.

You can run it as:

\aaa

This will call function.
