>and got rid of da letters j, k, q, and x
I acshually unironically agree with this. Espeshially q, it is the most useless letter in Inglish, and c needz to stop being used for s and sh sounds.
Baised. Baat,

>unironicalli*
>espeshialli*
Make all verbs regular verbs.
No saw now its seed
No more read now its readed
No more ate not its eated
Vi kud perfekt d inglis leguadze if vi juzd Srbijan latin to vrajt it.
th and ph =/= f
I like Jj though
Yu shud liec wimen not letters
Acstualli, j can stae. It is different enuf from g
gud
Ohld Inglish acshually used y for ih and ee, and g for y and g, and i as ih or a y substitoot. I thingk eyether could werk. Perhaps middell Inglish may be a better model for spellings and dialekt variashunz.

I will when IPA adds a symbol for English /u/.
what english u phoneme does IPA not have?
What?
>I will when IPA adds a symbol for English /u/.
>quoting me makes understand your question
makes me*

I said just use IPA. You said you will when IPA adds a symbol for English /u/. I'm confused because IPA already has symbols for all English phonemes.
>I'm confused because IPA already has symbols for all English phonemes.
IPA has symbols for any language's phonemes; you can basically pick and choose. It doesn't tell me anything. What might be unclear here is that /u/ doesn't necessarily mean [u]. In English, the quality [u] doesn't exist, yet it's used even in narrow transcriptions, because IPA lacks a dedicated symbol for the very unique quality that is English /u/.
'you' is /juː/, yes, but not [juː]
>for the very unique quality that is English /u/.
it's just a slightly more fronted variant of that sound
>slightly
nigga, it's got different rounding and everything
