I made a new writing system for English! It’s called rook script and it’s a phonetic syllabic alphabet. There are 37 letters that clump together to form syllable blocks (kind of like Hangul)
That’s just how long it took me to get to it lol
Unless I have a big change of heart there will be 3 spellings: ii.fekt (noun/verb), ə.fekt (verb), and af.ekt (noun)
Oh fuck this says hot.togz I’m sorry. Anyway this is a possible arrangement for printed rook script
My second thought is that native speakers are obviously much better situated to produce a system people want to use, which helps explain why pinyin and zhuyin are both more popular than Wade-Giles
I don’t know how to transliterate 쩡창 or 싱 into pinyin and translate it but if you’re asking “hasn’t this already been done” then the answer is definitely yes and better
Every time I see it I think it’s ugly. With some love it can be rendered as beautifully as katakana but in standard web fonts it never is. Obviously it’s old and in wide use so who am I to say
Instead of doing the work I’m paid to do or the work I said I’d do on this page I adapted pinyin into a rook/hangul-style script and I’m sorry for that

To my great embarrassment I don’t think I’ll be correcting the affect/effect thing
Basically Rage (Kitchen Sink) by Anamanaguchi is the GenAm version of Big For Your Boots by Stormzy
This is especially extreme with Hungarian names, which are basically only said in the correct order when speaking Hungarian
I think it has to do with contact, on both ends. Anglo people are more used to talking about Japanese people, so they’re less likely to say their name in the (correct) foreign way. And Japanese people may also be more used to being referred to in western name order and less likely to correct it

That’s neat the pen is reading your mind it knows where your strokes are coming from and where they’re going
Yeah it looks like it has better contrasting stroke width than a ballpoint. It’s supposed to also be better for the connecting filaments of 行书 as well
