The English language is stupid.
...If all the rules we the same, "Ghoti" would be pronounced "fish".
Enough (f sound)
Women (i sound)
Position (sh sound)
Also, homonyms. If that's not enough proof, I don't know what is.
Saw/Sore
I/Eye
To/Two/Too
WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD DO THAT
WHY
Even the names are confusing: homonyms, synomyns, antonyms etc etc
Sure is not pronounced "ss - uh - ree". It's pronounced shor.
I before E except after C. Oh, unless you're talking about 'science' or 'chief' or 'neighbour' or 'weigh' or any other freaking word
Work pronounced werk
Walk pronounced work
Once pronounced wuns
Silent K's. Actually, silent letters in general.
Who and How always confused me (still do, actually). I don't know if that's just me though.
Minute and minute. omG WHAT THE HELL I hate words spelled (or spelt? f^ck) the same with different sounds
