Geocache Description:


Confused by the cache name? I just wrote the phrase "Something's Fishy" using nonstandard English spelling! Let's take the word "fish" as an example of what I specifically did.

enough - f

women - i

nation - sh

And with that, ghoti spells fish, a well-known quirk that many in the linguistics community roll their eyes at.

Do you fear where this puzzle may be headed...? Don't worry too much, since I'll give you a good resource to help you out... It also might help if you brush up on your IPA.
