    Fuck spelling norms.

    Make English Phonetic Again!

      Tequila is actually phonetic in Spanish, lol

        Yes. But phonetic languages phoneticise loanwords.

        Ie. In Japanese the word “coffee” has bexome a loanword. But they don’t keep the unphoneticised english version. They phoneticise it to fit with their pronounciation and it becomes kohi.

        (This is complicated of course by katakana and such but just an example. German tends to so the same, since it’s phonetic.)

        Ie. German Kaffee from turkish kahve

      Hell is a world where you write common english with the IPA alphabet

        You dont need IPA to make it phonetic though:

        You can stick with latin and just make phonetic rules consistent so if you hear a word you automatically know how to spell it. Like in german.
