GHOTI spells “fish” of course, Everyone Knows That!

GH as in “rough”

O as in "women"

TI as in "nation"

GHOTI = "fish"

For further spelling confusion try this verse:

An Orthographic Lament

If an S and an I and an O and a U
With an X at the end spell Su;
And an E and a Y and an E spell I,
Pray what is a speller to do?
Then, if also an S and an I and a G
And an HED spell side,
There's nothing much left for a speller to do
But to go commit siouxeyesighed.
