I’m picking “Colonel” needs to be respelled to match how it’s pronounced. Try to pick a word no one else has picked. What word are you respelling?

Oh boy, a word wouldn’t be enough.

I would make English as consistent as Spanish is regarding phonetical consistency, or even more.

Oh, you have never seen this word ever before and you don’t know how to pronounce it? No worries, these universal rules will allow you just get it right, because letters always sound the same!

“Spanish regarding phonetically consistency”

Checking in from Oaxaca

Fun fact, the Spanish X used to be pronounced like the Greek χ, which is why Meχico, Teχas and Oaχaca are pronounced the way they are now in English (formerly like a “kh” and now like a “ks”)
To be honest, that was barely fun
