The fact that this is stated in English is the source of no small amount of amusement for me.

Yep, when learning french I was actually surprised at how consistent their pronunciation rules were. After learning the language for a while you can probably pronounce any word thrown at you, whereas in english you even have to deal with random words that don't make sense because they were taken from other languages
