A group of words that didn’t journey through
France are those with a silent ‘gh’, like
DROUGHT, THOUGHT, THROUGH,
THOROUGH, BOROUGH, DAUGHTER and
MIGHT. These came from Germanic roots,
though not all words developed a silent ‘gh’ –
others developed a /f/, like COUGH, ROUGH,
TOUGH, ENOUGH and LAUGH.
