What does that spell phonetically?
It spells POTATO.
Here is the break down:
GH OUGH PHTH EIGH TTE EAU
If GH stands for P as in Hiccough
If OUGH stands for O as in Dough
If PHTH stands for T as in Phthisis
If EIGH stands for A as in Neighbour
If TTE stands for T as in Gazette
If EAU stands for O as in Plateau

teaching would use it as a test or homework assignment.
