Rite adds a few more rules and gets a little closer to traditional English Today, reading English aloud is a complex process based primarily on lexical memory and word shape recognition. The goal of rectified spelling is to get the spelling close enough to the correct pronunciation that when a page is read aloud by someone with no lexical knowledge who pronounces each letter according to the Saxon alphabet, it can be understood by a native speaker. Spanglish is completely or over 60% rectified. All that is needed is a 15% respelling. All
phonemic or alphabetic notations will respell 60% or more of the words
in the dictionary. Check how many words in your dictionary match the pronunciation
guide. It will be less than 40%.
The
Spanglish foniemic transcripshan system is wan av the fiu that can hanndl
the schwa. Most merge stressed and unstressed mid lax sounds and represent
them with [u- ugoe] &
[i - pensil ].
Although over 60% of the words have to be respelled to achieve 95% phonemicity, only 15% need to be respelled to regain some semblance of an alphabet. Words whose pronunciation has changed substantially are respelled. Those that are still recognizable when pronaunced according to the Saxon alphabet are not. o =aw, oo =aw ea =eh ie =i: ou =aw-u [out] au =ae-u There
are no silent letters in the Saxon alphabet. have=ha-veh
give = gi:v-veh sick=sicc
In a phonemic notation, words that rhyme are spelled the same. ear rhymes are eye rhymes. This is not the case with spelling pronunciation. near eye rhymes are close enough. Spanglish allows multiple spellings of the same sound. berr = bear = beir so it is not a 100% phonemic notation. Spanglish attempts to look like TO: tear=tear, terror=terror/terrer, bear/berr/bair/bare/bayer/bury - bear/berr/beir All
progress means war with society.
Progress toward greater rationality and consistency requires war with society and convention KEY

EAR RHYME-EYE RHYME PROBLEMS & REVERSALS
gir gRl -gcrl - An example of a reversal.
"gear" = /gir/ while "girl" /gRl or g&rl/
= <gear-l> or /gih-erl/
The pronunciation spelling of girl /grrl/
is gear-el. The pronunciation of gear /gir/ is gehr.
Perhaps these represent the way that the words
were once pronounced.
When the spelling pronunciations can be understood,
the word does not need to be respelled.
The goal of the reform is to get the spelling
close enough to pronunciation that someone who knew only
the 50 symbol Saxon alphabet [GP correspondence
table], could transcribe a the written code - read aloud.
If a passage can be read alound using just the
alphabet, and understood by a native speaker. Thata is
good enough.
