When I read it as "Wal" it made me hear "while" spoken in a southern US accent. So I guess depending on where people are from some spelling is tougher to remember because the words have thier own regional accents which sometimes removes the phonetic.

For example I pronounce "while" to rhyme with "Nile" so remembering it's spelling is quite easy because I'm pronouncing it phonetically. But then there are a few hundred words in English where for me they look nothing like they sound and I will either pronounce them wrong but spell them right or vice versa. 😂😅. Some crazy but amusing  confusion is written here http://www.spellingsociety.org/uploaded_misc/poems-online-misc-1419940069.pdf
