A tour of alternative spellings
English spelling is notoriously difficult and inconsistent. Let's try some alternatives for a size, shall we?
Ö spelling das not häv tu bi båring. Vi kän ålvejs improv it baj ädding sam nu interesting letters.
Z is sacz an anjuzd letter. Wi szud juz it macz mor, szud wi not?
Haŭ abaŭt sam leterz vit litel hats? Ĉek it aŭt! A pleĵur tu luk at, ŝurli ju agri.
Īven džast streit lains ken bī priti kūl. Īzier tu rait kompērd tu hets, et līst?
Kiųt litel huks ander leters? Aim sould! Hąrd tu dizegrį vit sač en edišen. Or ąr tei not jor kap of tį?
Sín eny speling jů supórt jet? Perhaps jůl inkaunter jór pryférd van ivenšaly.
Giv mí mór äkszent márksz! Du vi häv tu csúsz? Kän vi not häv tem ól?
Jüüsing tuu leters tu indikeit long saunds is samting vii niid tu düü moor! Düü jüü not ägrii?
Háo dù yú láikè tīsī tàipè? Měibì tū hārdè fór yú? Ài làik yītè kuàitè ā luótè!
