Your asterisk example is correct. For those less fluent: The "ch" in "chore" is the same as in "choice" and the "ch" in "chasm" is the same as "chord".

Which is yet another example that english is really just three languages in a trench coat that mugs other languages in dark alleys for spare syntax.
