#ScribesAndMakers Ghoti (fish) is a word created to demonstrate the odd pronunciation variations in the English language. Create or share a word you've created. I’ve made up words, but ghoti highlights the variation in pronunciation. I’ve a number of place and character names pronounced different to how they’re obviously spelt. Also, writers borrowing names from real life need to ensure they’re pronounced correctly. I forget which romantasy writer couldn’t pronounce a Celtic name she used.
