Re: Yûomaewec: Example and evaluation

Len disothei huri Adrian Morgan, im sekem:
Your spelling reform is quite interesting. However, it's obviously not
intended for my dialect. You would seem not to have /r=/, making it into
a schwa.

>Hze aplikaeccin ov Okhim'z Raezi en eotc caes ez obveis.
There, you have "raezi" for razor. According to previous posts, you have
|i| for schwa. Do you pronounce the word something like [rejz@]? For me,
it definitely ends in [zr=].

The frequency of diacritics is an obstacle to this system's use, I think.
But so would a tremendous amount of digraphs. English ends up like
Maggel, with the written words having little to do with pronunciation as
a practical matter. (I couldn't do anything like that, I'm afraid.)
People manage, though. Some do.
