I hav quite a nice list of heterografs for hommofones tu.
This is all stuff that I had been collecting for that wunderfully eye-opening
website that the SSS wil eventually hav.
1. Redundent letters and the use of dubld consonents. (see above)
2. The s/ss/c/ z/ mess - bus/fuss city/sitter maze/phase
passion/fashion
attention/tension hence/sense
3. Stress
4. Long ee, short e, silent e and short u
5. The magic e/ open-closed vowel rool and exeptions tu it.
6. Banger danger - ginger girl
7. -ER, and schwa generally
8. aw/or and a/ar (and differences in this between UK and US English)
9. Rools for adding sufixes
10. The spook/took, blood/mud, hush/push fiasco.
11. Ph/f, c/k ad ch and uther less common unpredictabls.
Unsystematik
Systematic (Predictable spelleing) can be positional: initial and terminal spellings different
Phonemic (approaches a one to one correspondence between symbol and sound)
Unigrafik -
Ways to become more like TO
Positional Spelling
Allowed variants
Allow up to 50 irregular spellings
The name suggests that spelling simplification is achieved by removing
or cutting
redundant letters.
Systematic spelling can be positional. There can be more than
one way to spell a
word depending on whether it is in a free vowel position, at the end
of a word (or
syllable) or in a checked vowel position where it must be marked.
Positional spelling is more complicated than phonemic (1 to 1) spelling
but it
is also more like the traditional orthography.
Phonemic spelling schemes try to have one and only one way to spell
a sound. In the
past these systems have been brought in line with TO by allowing a
certain number
of word spellings (usually 12 to 40 logograms) into the system.
The most consistent phonemic system contains no digraphs that are not
true blends of
the component letter sounds. Thus if a =ah and i=ee then ai =
ah+ee. With digraphs
such as those in NewSpelling [ie, ae, ...] there is little or no relation
between the letter combinations
What accounts for the great number of alternative schemes is the fact
that most are hybrids.
A fynal sceem deryved from TecnO wood be very cloas tu OGD as descybed by J.R. Reilly.
Heer is the list ov essential grafeems.

On the net, u' could be replaisd with u circumflex.

The remaining consonants ar predictable.
As yoo can see, not aul redundant letters ar cut, tho ov corse menny
ar.
Thoas that remain ar thair puerly tu pander tu TO luvers, and I wood
expect
them tu vanish in a subsequent tydy up.
Aul long vowels ar marked by the approapriat dygraf or simbol; short
vowels, whair thay ar marked in TO by a dubbled consonant, then TecnO
folloes the TO, but dus not add new dubbled consonants unless thay
ar
needed tu coap with a suffix, e.g. hed, past tense - hedded. It is
envisajed that dubbled consonants wood be eliminaited ultimatly.
Apostrofies ar abolished.
Latin, Greek and uther forin and strainj pluerals ar reguelarised, e.g.
ae,
i, ata, x, ora, and aul the rest ar replaissed by s or es as requiyred.
Pleez fynd attached the set peesses ritten in TecnO.
Aulso available is a 50,000 werd dictionary, which in its zipped form
taiks
380kb, and about 2mb unzipped. I will send this tu ennywun whoo requests
it. Olternativly, I can send just the TO werds if this is uessful as
a
list.
| ... | Alphabet of Redundancy |
A in 'hed', head,
dead, & lead, should be the same as fed. The a
was once a schwa sound: heh-uhd.
B in 'dout' and 'bomb': doubt
should be the same as about, loud, snout. bomb should be the
same as mom.
C in 'sizers', scissors:
siss should be the same as Liz, ors since unstressed should
be the same as mister.
D in 'ajust', adjust:
j is an abbreviation for
dzh so the d sound is already included.
E in 'privat', Adding the e would
indicate a pronunciation of privait (see also foreign/forin) below.
F in dificult, difficult:
The 2nd f is a marker but what it marks is too ambiguous to be useful.
G in 'forin', /for
n/
foreign: associated with reign /rein/ but not the same sound.
GH in 'caut', caught should
be the same as cauterize
H in 'scool' or 'skool',
ch
in some languages refers to the sh sound. chato in portugues
is pronounced shato.
I in 'frend', friend: The
exception to "..the first vowel does the talking." Friend should
be the same as mend, send.
J in ..... (don't
know of any redundant J. This is probably because this letter was
added so late in the game [circa 1500])
K in nife and noll, knife
should be the same as wife, life.
knoll should be the same as toll
or mole.
L in caam, calm, palm,
alms should be the same as bom, pom, mom.
M in nemonic,
N in 'condem',
O in 'peple',
P in 'receit',
Q in ? Some
argue that the Q itself is totally redundnat and could be replaced by kw.
queen used to be spelled cwen.
R in ? The R is associated
with three sounds including the vowel in "her". hurry/hRri, h3:ri
plural/plRL, pl3:
l
S in 'iland',
T in castle, often, catch
(ch refers to /tsh/ so an extra t is redun.)
U in 'bild',
V in ??
W in 'anser',
X in ??
Y in ??
Z in (in
the traditional orthography, the z sound is usually spelled with an s)
and in many other spelling patterns
