In an article on the internet, entitled: How Hard is English, it goes like this:
If GH stands for P, as in Hiccough, and if OUGH stands for O, as in Dough, and if PHTH stands fo T, as in Phthisis, and if EIGH stands for A, as in Neighbour, and if TTE stands for T, as in Gazette, and if EAU stands for O, as in Plateau, then wouldn't the right way to spell POTATO be:
GHOUGHPHTHEIGHTTEEAU?0
[Spelling follows the English used in UK, Australia etc]0
makes sense ... why not ?
this reminds me of a reporter on CNN who once talked about the name of a city in wales which has a 50 letters long name , most of them are silent
LLANFAIRPWLLGWYNGYLLGOGERYCHWYRNDROBWLLLLANTYSILIO GOGOGOCH is according to one source the longest placename in the world, with 58 letters. It is a town in North Wales meaning "St. Mary's Church in the hollow of the white hazel near to the rapid whirlpool of Llantysilio of the red cave" or "St. Mary's (Church) by the white aspen over the whirlpool, and St. Tysilio's (Church) by the red cave" in Welsh.
