English is not our mother-tongue but yet it is Nigeria official language since we were colonised by the British. Which make it normal for us as Nigerians to question some spellings in English language.

Apart from being the hardest course I have ever known, often time, you hear how an English word is pronounced but when you see the spelling, you will wonder how and why is been pronounced the way it is.

Our question; name that English word you totally disagree with its spelling.

Why'd ennui be pronounced as /an-wee/? In view of this, it should be spelt as 'anwi' or the former should be pronounced as /hen-ui/. Also Bourgewa instead of Bourgeois.
