This is a favourite of mine - used as an example on a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) course a few years ago...

How is this pronounced? GHOTI

Most people (me included at the time) go for "goatee" or "gottee" or some such.

Actually, it's "FISH"

GH = F - as in rough
O = I - as in women
TI = SH - as in addition

Makes your head spin, sometimes
