    It made me feel like I was back in primary school and reading out to the class at a slow and broken pace.

    Reminds me a little bit of George Bernard Shaw's joke that English can allow you to spell "fish" as "ghoti"

    the gh = f as in rouGH

    the o = i as in wOmen

    the ti = sh as in naTIon


    Of course you can also argue that it doesn't
