This riddle is an old one, but one I haven't seen around for a long time. It goes like this.

"Enough Already! The English language has so many spelling exceptions that almost anything goes. Boys and girls grow into men and women, learning that the "G" in Goldfish sounds totally different than it does in Giraffe. Why with rules this the letters "Ghoti" could very well spell what common word?"

the scale thing, was meant to be a hint (scales on a fish). A few people got the answer, but I suspect they went online to solve it (gh- in rough as opposed to the gh in enough in the riddle). You were supposed to solve it yourself, using the clues in the riddle.
