Slang words, but other languages are guilty of this as well.

Awkward. How to say this? And then they say that we use many consonants in a row and it would be hard to speak - i say we at least use consonants which don´t break Your tongue when You use them in a row. wkw. Who had this idea? But probably it´s two silent w´s...

English in general or English/UK English?

Spelling in general is a big mess in the language, no standardization and no rules.

U often sounding like A
I often sounding like A
E sometimes sounding like I

A dozen ways to say "ough".

Same words with different spellings, depending on circumstance - i.e. bass fish and bass guitar.

And so and so on.

in old english, 'Y' is 'Th' a subsitute for 'Thorn'.
So Ye olde pub is 'The olde pub'.

Also, any forced abreviations to make a word fit into one syllable.
