ENGLISH IS A CRAZY LANGUAGE

Want some examples?  Try this:  how do you pronounce
            OUGH  ?

Depends.  Put a B in front of it, and you get
            BOUGH        (ow!)

But put a C in front of it, and look what happens -
            COUGH        (off)

Try it with a D -
            DOUGH            (oh)

This is amazing - THROUGH      (ooh!)

But this is ridiculous -  TOUGH    (buff)

Did I miss any possibilities?


All this leads us to an interesting question.  There is a street in San Francisco named GOUGH.  How do you suppose that is pronounced?  Gow?  Gawf?  Go?  Goo?  Guff?  Answer below*

ENOUGH, awready.




How about a couple of cartoons!
