Oddities of the hard and soft G.

A grubby rowboat is a dingy dinghy.
If you scorch something while carrying a tune, you are singeing while singing.
I'm pretty sure "margarine" is the only word in American English where the G sounds like J before A.
But if you run afoul of the law in London, you might end up in gaol.
