Yntrodxkshxn Tu Nuspelynh

Learning to read and write have been the cornerstones of our educational system. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. But over the years it has achieved success for those that really try and want to learn. Today’s Warped site takes a look at some very interesting concepts on the educational system.

The name of the site is Yntrodxkshxn tu Nuspelynh, Introduction to Newspelling. Correct spelling and pronouncing of English words are very hard because words are not spelled as they sound. This is due in part to the eclectic nature of English and its readiness to accept loan words from other languages. This is also due in part to the age of the language. The problems with spelling are intensified by the new role of English as an international language. English is the language of commerce, law, science, technology, and entertainment. Much of the world is now learning English, a process which is made unnecessarily difficult by the difficulty of spelling.

The author looks at this as a perfect time for spelling reform, which can be done by computers. It can be time consuming, but has already been an ongoing process for many many years. It is the process by which colour becomes color and through becomes thru.

This is an interesting concept, one that merits some looking into. But like everything else we look at, it seems to be a little, er, Warped, if you know what I mean. The Warp-o-Meter gives this site 7.0.
