Hi My name is Ghoti. Just so everyone
knows, It's My name, not what I am.
George Bernard Shaw argued that the word fish could be spelled “ghoti†in English.
_f_ could be spelled “gh†as in “enoughâ€;
_I_ could be spelled “o†as in “womenâ€,
and _sh_ could be spelled “ti†as in “nationâ€.
Yeah, About the George Bernard Shaw thing...
Was he right? can fish be spelled "Ghoti"? No. 'gh' is only pronounced f at ends of words - “tough†“cough†etc. or after vowels as in “draught.†At the beginning of words “gh†as in “ghost†and “ghetto†can only be pronounced g. “o†is only pronounced I in “women†and “ti†is only pronounced sh with “on†in shn as in “nation". It cannot be separated. Sorry George... You should have talked to me first!
