Every once in a while I sometimes think about remaking the English writing system, as is normal I’m sure😅, and I wonder what would be the most useful revision of punctuation or phonetic.

    Strich typing would make it much easier to learn … and then much harder to grow, as importing words becomes harder.

    A plural “you” would alleviate some awkwardness here and there. I often use “yous”

    Negatives that match their positives: avoid the difference between “he went” and “he didn’t go”

      he wentn’t © 😂

      why not just say “he did go” vs “he didn’t go”? it’s not that they are different rather that !(“he went”) doesn’t exist.

        “He went” is much more common, and has no negative.
