You can change the spelling of one word in the English language to match how they are pronounced. What word do you pick?
I'm picking "Colonel" needs to be respelled to match how it's pronounced.
Try to pick a word no one else has picked. What word are you respelling?

“Spanish regarding phonetical consistency”
Checking in from Oaxaca
I dunno, Oaxaca seems pretty straightforward. oa is pronounced kinda like "ua", I guess, but midword x is usually a "hh" sound anyway so that's the only slightly weird thing.
Fun fact, the Spanish X used to be pronounced like the Greek χ, which is why Meχico, Teχas and Oaχaca are pronounced the way they are now in English (formerly like a "kh" and now like a "ks")
To be honest, that was barely fun
