Are you trying to say English words have to match the spelling we put to them? Because that would be about as far off as one could be describing English.

Anyway, Language is not inherited.

A close study of a toddler trying to learn a language will teach you the last bit. One of the most interesting aspects of learning a language is that in the process the brain clips away the speech patterns not used in that language, hence for example why Chinese people often have problems with English "l's".
