That's kind of like how it is with Chinese, Japanese and Korean. The words don't give any clue as to how words are pronounced... or what they mean.

In Massachusetts there is city called Worcester, but it is pronounced Wooster. It how we tell when new newsreporters didn't grow up here.

Also tourists have trouble pronouncing Alewife and Copley

I lived in the town of Jouy-en-Josas for six months, and people couldn’t agree on whether or not to pronounce that last “S”

First day of class when teachers would take attendance, they would usually stumble over my last name. One class in college, the teacher was stumbling when this woman and I both said "Here". It turned out that our last name, although spelt slightly different, were pronounced the same. She gave me a dirty look anyhow.

Sigh, some people are so quick to judge. Why the need for a dirty look?
