Spelling and written English…

[Written with alternative spellings intentionally]

I saw on the news today that 1 in 3 peeple in England have problems with spelling. One of the commentators sujested we shud follow Portugal’s egsample, who have resently proposed changes to simplify and consolidate Portuguese.

I think a revamp of the English langwage is well overdue. Silent letters and multiple spellings of individual fonetic sounds are just plane stupid. Added to that, we have some variations in spelling between English speeking nashons.

It’s ezee to be preshus about “our heritage”, but if English was a new invenshon, I’m sure many wud be quick to identify all the problems.

If there is ever a vote for a spelling simplificashon I will be in favor of it.
