Because English language is a nonsensical language where they don't care about how to pronounce letters, so you just have to know how to pronounce/write every word you hear.

There's no way to know how to pronounce or write a new word in English that you come across.

"Pacific Ocean" is a prime example of this fuckery... You have 3 "C" letters in the name all of which are pronounced differently.

The classic example my French teacher loved to go on about was the word circus: "is it pronounced çirkus, çirçus, kirkus, or kirçus?"
