Ben Franklin tried to redo English orthography I think

I remember him being really butthurt about digraphs

“Sh” is the devil, etc

If anything we need diacritics for the vowels

Latin had 5, English has something like 13

Just use thorn for that tbh

There’s two of the th sounds anyway

Thursday vs there

Completely agreed

X is useless

digraphs in Polish are so dumb

literally just use š

Digraphs are what make Polish last names so hard to read

There used to be a letter for the ng sound. Just an n with a tail

@VinceChaos that’s still the way it’s written in IPA

@ophiuchus India Pale Ale? Or is that the acronym for phonetic pronunciations?

International Phonetic Alphabet

A way of rendering languages with diverse or even non existent orthographies phonetically legible

Every possible sound has a discrete match in IPA so every time you see it, whether it’s used to write English or Warlpiri, it’s always the same sound

Thought so

Our leaders are so stupid!

I'm really getting sick of people coming in illegally.

How long is it going to take before our leaders just completely shut down the border?

ffs

@Nemets wait, "azure" is pronounced "azhur"?

Uh yeah

How do you say it

@ophiuchus I say it "ahzur".

Is there another way?

Confusion

Is it biologically possible to produce worse content
