What word is this?

Gheighgher

If you like that one, figure this one out:

Ghoughphtheightteeau

I know that the second one is

potato (but I forget how to derive the “p”)

And then there’s always “ghoti,” which one of the English profs at my alma mater used to have on his vanity plate. I was jealous (even though I didn’t have a car at the time).

Edited to add: Ooh! Ooh! Is the first one

heifer?

Is ‘gheighgher’ paper?

“gh” as /p/ is from hiccough.

Yep. Correct on the other one as well.

Tiogh

Ssot

Phtheauphthoughl

Eighgh

Thanks! I had to look that up but I’ve learned something new today.

This looks like dialogue from an H.P. Lovecraft story. :smiley:
