You think thats weird? What about contronyms; words with meanings that contradict each other. You bolt (secure) your door and bolt (flee) from the cops. You get a bill for your bill. You buckle your belt while bridges buckle under the weight. You dust your French toast with a fine coat sugar and dust your desk to get rid of a fine coat of dirt.

Take the "gh" from "tough".
Take the "o" from "women".
Take the "ti" from "ration".

And you have the word "ghoti", which is pronounced "fish".
