how easily can you read this
It was probably a coupla years ago by now that I first devised this new spelling system for English. Then last night I was reading on Wikipedia about spelling reform ideas and got reinterested in my own. I revised it in a few key areas last night and stayed up a bit too late doing so (as I am wont to do doing something or other on the computer almost always these days). Its biggest advantage compared to other proposed English spelling-reform systems is its relative economicality, mostly due I think to single sounds being represented by single letters. A complication arises concerning the spelling of strings comprising vowels followed by "r" or "l" or at the ends of words, but this is pretty justifiable, I think, because it aids the conciseness of the system and also actually brings it a bit closer than it otherwise would be to normal English spelling. This would, I think, make it easier for a previousl literate English speaker to learn to read and write in it. And even though this system would be more complex for a non-writer of standard English to learn as a result, it is still wholly regular and simpler by far than standard English spelling, and hence still holds that large advantage over it. If you have read this whole post through to here and have understood it all, that would lend credence to my hypotheses here. Let me know if you did! It's fun to write in this and really pretty quick once you get a little practice.

EDIT: I made some adjustments to the system from when I originally posted; can you figure out what they are? Also, dag, "ekkenaamekalliti" is now sixteen letters, whereas "economicality" is only thirteen! On the other hand, "xrtyn" is only five letters, while "thirteen" has eight. I think in the aggregate one can expect common short words to become shorter and long, more specialized words to become longer, which ought to mean that this system is overall more concise than standard spelling. And indeed it is, as you can see if you compare it to the same passage in standard spelling that's inside the LJ-cut. (Yes, I took the time to do this even though I should be packing up to head to Williamstown tomorrow. Hm, I like the look of "temaro.")
