Mahault Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 http://www.demeyere.com/shavian/shavian.pdf Bernard Shaw’s proposal for an alternate English alphabet. Pretty cool stuff, but I wonder if it will ever have an influence. Some of the pronunciations didn’t make sense to me, but then again I’m confidant that my spoken English is Pure Evil.

BigRob Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 It's an interesting idea. English is such a polyglot language that it has a lot of needlessly complex rules on pronunciation. Adding a few new letters at least could be handy, but I think changing the whole alphabet may be too radical for anyone to actually do it. Link to comment
