English spelling doesn't work that way, silly! :3

It's pronounced "fish". It's also the Klingon word for "fish". Imagine that.

It's a joke about English pronunciation and how stupid it is.

English spelling may be horribad, but it still doesn't work like that. :/

Haldo: It doesn't actually follow the rules, though, as all of those sounds can be made with those letters, but only following certain patterns of vowels.

The fact that nobody in their right mind would assume "ghoti" was pronounced "fish" demonstrates that English is reasonably consistent, at least much more so than the term seeks to imply.
