The word "ghole" is a rare word that is spelled uniquely from how it may sound. Phonetically, the word is pronounced /ɡoʊl/ and is spelled with a "gh" at the beginning, despite the lack of a noticeable "h" sound. This can be confusing when attempting to spell the word phonetically. The word itself refers to a type of fish, but its rarity and unconventional spelling may make it difficult for writers and speakers to use accurately.
