    @momu5464 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Maybe instead of removing c, you write it as ç when it is pronounced like a s. Also, x isn't the only letter representing 2 sounds. J represents a d and an s (like in vision) merged together. Thats why it gets transcripted into Russian as дж. Like d zh. It's the same thing for ch. It represents tsh.
    Edit: also sometimes y represents ar and ee together like in my.

    I'd probably repurpose X to be used as a modifier:

    SX - "sh" in shape
    ZX - "s" in leisure
    TX - "th" in think
    DX - "th" in the
    NX - "ng" in sing
    I'd repurpose J for the J in fjord and hallelujah, and remove Y altogether
    I'd repurpose Q for the unstressed a in about, so that i can make almost every vowel sound:
    A - trap
    AJ - price

  • @uwuzote
    @uwuzote 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    The worst part of english spelling is the vowels. 5 (6 with Y) letters to represent like 20
    But the sad truth is: everybody speaks differently, especially vowels, so vowel-to-letter correspondence would lead to inconsistent spelling
    Like, X or C really is not a burden, the vowels and inconsistent spelling are
    Also, doing spelling reform, even if possible, is really, really hard. Even if USA will say "now write this" many countries won't, or would apply new rules inconsistently. New generations would still need to learn old spelling in order to access literature and basically everything

    You might take an inspiration from the Czech Alphabet (Abeceda) which has 42 letters instead of 26. Czech is a very phonetic language so all the texts we "write as we hear". Here are all the letters:
    A, Á, B, C, Č, D, Ď, E, É, Ě, F, G, H, Ch, I, Í, J, K, L, M, N, Ň, O, Ó, P, Q, R, Ř, S, Š, T, Ť, U, Ú, Ů, V, W, X, Y, Ý, Z, Ž.
    As someone already mentioned here in the discussion English coul borrow following letters from the Czech Alphabet:
    CH = Č - chair - čér
    SH = Š - shoe - šů
    G, J = Ž - garage - garáž, Gill - Žil, January - Žeňuery
    T - Ť = tune - ťůn
    etc.

  • @Friday.S
    @Friday.S 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    You could derive a few sounds by palatalisation symbolized with a caron (upside down circumflex) or acute over top the non-palatal counterpart:
    ch = t’, j = d’, sh = ś, s in "measure" = z’, hy = h’ (so hue might become h’ou)
    That way, at least some similar looking letters will also sound similar, making the system more intuitive.
    (Under ideal circumstances these would all be arranged as nicely as the ś)

    The reason why we have the letter x, for ks, and no pl, wh or pl, is because of alphabet evolution. Greek people had the letter Ksi, and our alphabet is derived from the Latin alphabet. And Latin borrowed words from Greek. Some of which had the letter ksi. So the letter was added. And there’s the answer.

  • @nerdlywacko
    @nerdlywacko 15 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I think the reason why we still have the letter x is because of clusters. It saves time writing “boxes” and not “bokses”. It’s what the Spanish did when investing the “ñ”. It was to save room and money on paper, instead of writing two n’s.

    instead of removing C, assign it the Dj sound, as in 'j'ordan. and the J we use can be the 's' as in plea's'ure!
    for SH, and CH, why dont we rob from turkish, they have pre existing sounds for that? and for TH as in 'th'rill, rob from the icelandics. and the TH as in 'th'ough, rob the d with a line from the icelandics too.

  • @JolteonAsAlways
    @JolteonAsAlways 14 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    In my opinion, this is bad.
    Keep the C. You could confuse it with other names like cat and kat.
    Removing the X makes the word longer, not better. but we found ks in some words sooooooo... let's replace them with x!
    The instant letters are stupid. Why just not steal others like the Ç, Ч, Č, etc. also, TH has already a letter, it's Þ þ, and for sh is also Ş and Š.
    You could use Ð ð called eth that you could use it for voiced ths, and the Þ is for unvoiced ths.
    Use the eng, Ŋ, and use it, for example: Comiŋ, Talkiŋ, Walkiŋ.
    Ooo! let's use the marcons as long vocals, like Ā Ē Ī Ō Ū, and they will be AA, EE, II, OO, UU. They could also be used in some words that contain 1 vocal, but they sound long.
    More! let's revive Yogh Ȝ ȝ, We could use yogh as a replacement as gh. and also adopt this weird letter, or, if you don't like how it looks, we can reject it, it's Ȣ ȣ. We could replace ou as ȣ, so, for example: Þrȣȝ.

    2 h : ه‍ ح
    2 gh or q : غ ق
    And we should write exactly like we have learned. Because if we write it another shape, people think we are joking or make fun of sth or they think we are weak in literature. Like me 😁.
    But we can write some words different: واقعاً or واقعن

    My only issue would be the contradiction between the "Ñ" being okay (when it can be used as a digraph like with gn in italian iirc, or ny like in in the google pronunciation you showed, or like in nn, as it was originally and how the ñ was birthed, after all they are are actualyl two n's on top of each other)

  • @matthewcollins4157
    @matthewcollins4157 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    There is a problem with TH only having one letter, because it actually needs two. One letter for its unvoiced version as in think, thorn or with, and one for its voiced version as in this, that or thus. Both of these previously had characters in English but were dropped from usage. Thorn was dropped because of the invention of the printing press which initially substituted Y for Thorn and survives to some extent when we see old-timey writing that says "Ye Old Whatever" which would have been read as "The Old Whatever" where The was written (thorn)+e.
    You are also overlooking something that X does that KS or EKS doesn't and that is abbreviation. Why would someone want to write two or three letters when they could just write X. It is even fairly common to replace "Christ" in Christmas with an X and write it as x-mas. Religious arguments aside, X-mas is just faster to write. The replacement characters for CH, SH and TH are combinations of the prexisting letter combinations and if we are going to go through that much work writing one new letter, why not just write the old two. That is why Thorn and Eth (aka That) should make a comeback in my opinion, Eth being the TH in This, that or thus (and as I indicated previously Eth was sometimes just called "That" instead of "Eth" and the whole word That was written with just one letter, similar to how we use B, I, N, O, R. U and Y as stand alone letters representing whole words: be, I, in, Oh, are, you, and why today.
    One you didn't mention was W which today is treated as one letter but is actually (as it's name suggests) is a combination of two letters, U or V a literal double-U or double-V in French. This sound was originally represented by a now dropped letter from English called Wynn.

  • @z_sasku
    @z_sasku ปีที่แล้ว

    wouldn't it be better to use pre- existing letters than to make new letters? could use the old english runes to refer for letters to better represent sounds, and if it doesn't have what we are looking for, we can borrow from another language.
    example- ''ч'' making the sound ''ch'' from the russian language. the benefits of this would make english easier to learn. and also wouldn't making more letters to better represent sounds make english easier to learn as well, more specifically vowels. ex. the word ''release'' ''re'' is making the ri sound, and is needing two letters ''ea'' to represent one sound and the last letter e adds nothing.
    and while the sound the letter x makes can be represented by other letters, i generally support the idea of individual letters representing multiple sound as x makes the 'ks' sound, as it keeps things shorter.
    my general meaning is i'd rather learn letters that doesn't change pronunciation of itself depending on what word its in, than to learn how each individual word is supposed to be spelled and pronounced which isn't always consistently the same.

    But something I realized: The Spanish Ñ sound like Ny. But the X in English sounds like Ks. so if X can be Ks, why can't Ñ be Ny??? And Q + U = Q?? Doesn't that Contradict?
    Just a little contradiction a came across, but great vid! 👍 Very entertaining to see the new versions!
