tankhughes commented on the list misled-words-rVbqlGprVH6k
I've been working on a spreadsheet to see if there are any patterns about languages or word formations that come up more often than others, but I think it's really the combination of sources that makes it hard to have strong reader intuition about how to pronounce any - meringue and merengue, quahog and quay, gnu and GNU.
Sure, French and Greek come up a lot, but a lot of English words in total come from French and Greek, so those numbers would need to be weighted against the total number of loanwords each language family has contributed.
