I have heard it described as a mixture between latin languages, where all vowels and consonents are pronounced in a consistent manner, and character based languages like Mandarin.
So - trough, bough, though, thought are essentially character based words as the pronunciation of the "ough" is different in each.
Which leads to fish being spelt ghoti.

Even stranger is that this is closely connected to the concept of 'Schadenfreude', wich you don't have a word for.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

That's because we would never delight in another's misfortune, no matter how deserved it was.

I suppose most readers know English is tough stuff[^]. If not, it is worth a try at reading out loud!
(The refererence to Nato at the top is BS - the poem was first published in 1929 or 1930, fifteen years before Nato was established. There is a longer version of the poem, but this one - which is one commonly presented - is bad enough...)

My wife, who is a USian, managed about 99% of that. Curiously, she didn't know what a "granary" was.

 Yes I was late with it, but IIRC you're early. I thought it was due at 0900 GMT, not BST.
(I have noticed some setters going early by my reckoning.)

 Very impressive! At first I thought it a bit gimmicky, then watched as she explained that the 'slightly modded' C64 is actually serves as more than a bass body...mind blown!

That's what I thought as well at first, until she showed it was using the actual onboard hardware to produce/alter the sound. Rather impressive.

I'm not even sure if you're talking about the actual woman or if you've decided the C64 bass-guitar is feminine
