Ну и прочее.

Ей богу, не надо над людьми такие эксперименты ставить. Если есть возможность им смысл орфографией подсказать, лучше подсказать.

Зритель

Вы считаете избыточность орфографии достоинством, а я недостатком. Плохо, когда нужно гадать и запоминать, в каком слове какой вариант используется. И морфологически не оправдано в отличие от русского, всё исключительно по традиции. Вы кстати тоже по традиционным написаниям хорошо прошлись, Ваши новые написания тоже надо заучивать пословно.

Это не эксперимент над людьми? :)

По ходу составления примера изменил правило. Не добавлять букву a на месте швы в словах на -ble, потому что она выпадает при словоизменении, а я хотел, чтобы слова выглядели более-менее одинаково во всех формах, например: noble-nobler [ˈnəʊ.bəl ˈnəʊ.blə(r)] -> nóbl-nóbler.

Также нашёл проблемное место -- неразличение /ɒr/ и /ɔːr/, совпадают в or, как правило встречается второй вариант, а примеры для первого редки -- это orison, origin. Пока ничего с этим не делаю.

С чего вы взяли, что там разные звуки, и как решаете, где какой?

Зритель

Посмотрел в Карнеги -- ну да, AO1. За что купил, за то продаю.

По идее слова из группы FORCE надо писать через ór по этимологии и для большего диалектного охвата. Но я как-то остановился на RP.

Hellerick

Я таки считаю, что записывать преимущественно безударные слова по их сильным формам — дурная идея.

To/too, the/thee — это слова с разным значением, произношением, орфографией. Терять разницу между ними нерационально.

Зритель

Для полного счастья добавить самые частотные 100 слов в исключения и писать окончания -s/-es и -ed везде по традиции.

Я больше тяготею к принципу одна буква -- одна фонема, но тогда совсем неузнаваемо становится.

Z режет глаз. Надо выработать правило, чтобы писать на его месте s и не путать.

1) В начале слова и перед глухими согласными s /s/, z /z/.
2) В остальных местах ss /s/, s /z/.


aztec /ˈæz.tek/, disdain /dɪsˈdeɪn/ -> dissdán, police /pəˈliːs/ -> poléss

2) В остальных местах ss /s/, s /z/.

"glimpss"?

А в грамматических окончаниях что?

Зритель

Да, этот случай я упустил. Надо расширять первый пункт.

1) В начале слова, перед глухими согласными и в окончаниях после глухих согласных s /s/, z /z/.

Зритель

Слова на -ous придётся писать с двумя s. Но так скорее всего и надо, потому что полно слов так пишутся.

priceless -> príssless, goodness -> güdness, gorgeous -> gorjoss.

LIRA: Latin Inglish Reformed Alfabet

Description

Alphabet

The LIRA alphabet consists of 32 letters: 26 letters of the basic Latin alphabet and 6 additional letters (á, é, í, ô, ó, û, ú):

A Á B C D E É F G H I Í J K L M N O Ó Ô P Q R S T U Ú Û V W X Y
a á b c d e é f g h i í j k l m n o ó ô p q r s t u ú û v w x y

Phonetic values of graphemes

Vowel graphemes

13 letters are used to reflect vowel sounds.

LetterPronunciationNote
A a/æ/
Á á/eɪ/Used mostly in words of Romance origin according to etymology. The phonetic value is equivalent to the combinations EI, EY.
E e/ɛ/
É é/iː/Used mostly in words of Romance origin according to etymology. The phonetic value is equivalent to the letter Y.
I i/ɪ/
Í í/aɪ/Used mostly in words of Romance origin according to etymology. The phonetic value is equivalent to the combinations AI, AY.
O o/ɒ/
Ó ó/əʊ/Used mostly in words of Romance origin according to etymology. The phonetic value is equivalent to the combinations OU, OW.
Ô ô/uː/
U u/ʌ/
Ú ú/juː/Used mostly in words of Romance origin according to etymology. The phonetic value is equivalent to the combinations EU, YÓ. Depending on dialect in some positions the sound /j/ can disappear, thus the value changes to /uː/.
Û û/ʊ/
Y y/iː/Normally reflects the vowel sound when not preceding a vowel letter, and in combinations AY, EY. Otherwise its value is the consonant /j/.

Also 10 letter combinations are used:

CombinationPronunciationNote
AI, AY/aɪ/The variant AI is basic. The variant AY is used to distinguish homophones.
AU/aʊ/
/ɔː/Used mostly in words of Romance origin according to etymology. The phonetic value is equivalent to the combination OO.
EI, EY/eɪ/The variant EI is basic. The variant EY is used to distinguish homophones.
EU/juː/Depending on dialect in some positions the sound /j/ can disappear, thus the value changes to /uː/.
OI/ɔɪ/
OO/ɔː/Used mostly in words of Germanic origin.
OU, OW/əʊ/The variant OU is basic. The variant OW is used to distinguish homophones.

Thus the historical long vowels and diphthongs have two graphemes: one normally used for words of Romance origin, and another for words of Germanic origin:

PronunciationGrapheme for words of Romance originGrapheme for words of Germanic origin
/eɪ/ÁEI
/iː/ÉY
/aɪ/ÍAI
/əʊ/ÓOU
/juː/ÚEU (*)
/ɔː/OO

(*) The combination EU also can be used in words of Romance origin according to etymology. Example: Europ.

The principle of considering the origin of a word can be violated when it's necessary to distinguish homophones.

The unstressed vowel /ə/ is reflected according to etymology. In words of Germanic origin normally as E.

Consonant graphemes

21 letters are used to reflect consonant sounds.

LetterPronunciationNote
B b/b/
C c/s/Used in words of Romance origin according to etymology. The phonetic value is equivalent to the letter S.
D d/d/
F f/f/
G g/g/
H h/h/
J j/dʒ/
K k/k/Is silent in the combination KN where can be used to distinguish homophones.
L l/l/
M m/m/
N n/n/
P p/p/
Q q/k/Used in words of romance origin within the combination QU.
R r/r/
S s/s/Can be voicened to /z/ in suffices -ism, -asm.
T t/t/
V v/v/
W w/w/Can be used within rare combination OW having value of /əʊ/.
X x/ks/, /gz/
Y y/j/Normally reflects the consonant sound when preceding a vowel letter. Otherwise its value is the vowel /iː/.
Z z/z/

Also 5 letter combinations are used:

LetterPronunciationNote
CH/tʃ/
NG/ŋ/Treated as indivisible combination with value of /ŋ/ when located in morpheme-final position. Otherwise its value is /ŋg/.
QU/kw/Used mostly in words of Romance origin according to etymology. The phonetic value is equivalent to the combination KW.
SH/ʃ/
TH/θ/, /ð/

Combinations of vowels with the letter R

When followed by the letter R the vowel graphemes acquire special values:

CombinationPronunciationNote
AR/ɑː(r)/
AUR, AUER/aʊə(r)/
AIR, AIER, ÍR/eɪə(r)/The variant ÍR is used mostly in words of Romance origin according to etymology.
ER, EIR, ÁR/ɛə(r)/The variant ER is used in root-final position. The variant ÁR is used mostly in words of Romance origin according to etymology.
EUR, ÚR/jʊə(r)/The variant ÚR is used mostly in words of Romance origin according to etymology.
IR, ÉR/ɪə(r)/The variant ÉR is used mostly in words of Romance origin according to etymology.
OR, OUR/ɔː(r)/
ÔR, ÛR/ʊə(r)/
UR,ER+consonant,IR+consonant, UR+consonant/ɜː(r)/The variants UR and ER+consonant are used in root-final position. The variants ER+consonant, IR+consonant, UR+consonant are used in words of Romance origin according to etymology.

In the table above the first variant of grapheme is basic, and others are used to distinguish homophones.

Combination of consonants with the letters I, Ú

In words of Romance origin within unstressed syllables the values of dental consonants take into account the palatalization caused by succeeding non-syllabic letter I or letter Ú:

CombinationPronunciationNote
CI/ʃ/Before a vowel.
SI/ʃ/ Before a vowel.
TI/tʃ/Before a vowel.
ZI/ʒ/Before a vowel.
/ʃə/
/tʃə/
/ʒə/

Note that within stressed syllables the palatalization of dental consonants is shown explicitly: sure > shúr.

Uniform reflections of morphemes

The ending and suffix reflected in the traditional orthography as -(e)s, in the LIRA orthography is uniformly reflected as -es.(*)

(*) Four verbs with irregular 3rd person singular form are exceptions: has > has, is > is, does > dus, says > ses.

The suffix reflected in the traditional orthography es -ed, in the LIRA orthography is uniformly reflected as -ed.

Thus both morpheme have similar pronunciation rules:

Morpheme -es:
— after unvoiced consonants the value is /s/,
— after voiced consonants the value is /z/,
— after the sounds /s/, /z/, /ʃ/, /ʒ/ the value is /ɪz/.
Morpheme -ed:
— after unvoiced consonants the value is /t/,
— after voiced consonants the value is /d/,
— after the sounds /t/, /d/ the value is /ɪd/.

Some particular rules

  • Consonants reflected with double letters in the traditional orthography normally are reflected with single letters in the LIRA orthography. Exceptions are made for: double consonants between elements of compound words, the combination -ess (as it has to be distinguished from the grammatical ending -es), the combination -rr (as it's needed to show that the preceding vowel has the value of /ɜː/), and some words which have to be distinguished from homophones.
  • When the negative particle nt is added to a word, the apostrophe is used before it and not between its letters as in the traditional orthography. Example: doesn't > dus'nt.
  • The combination oo normally is used when the long pronunciation of the vowel is shown in a special way. Examples: saw > soo, taught > toot, talk > took.
  • If the stem of a word ends in sounds /ɛs/, /əs/ reflected in the traditional orthography as ‑ess, in the LIRA orthography it ends in ‑ess as well. This letter combination is retained when morphemes ‑ed, ‑es are added, but is simplified to ‑es when other morphemes are added. Examples: pointless, but pointlesli.
  • When two homophones of Germanic origin with the sound /iː/ exist, the one which reflects it with the combination ea in the traditional orthography reflects it with the letter É in the LIRA orthography. Examples: meat > mét, but meet > myt.
  • When two homophones of Germanic origin with the diphthong /aɪ/ exist, the one which reflects it with the combination igh in the traditional orthography reflects it with the combination AY in the LIRA orthography. Examples: right > rayt, but write > rait.
  • When two homophones of Germanic origin with the diphthong /eɪ/ exist, the one which reflects it with the combination ai, ay, aigh, or eigh in the traditional orthography reflects it with the combination ey in the LIRA orthography. Examples: sail > seyl, but sale > seil.
  • The sounds /jiː/ are reflected with the combination . Example: yeast > yést.
  • The combination kn with the value of /n/ is retained when it's necessary to distinguish homophones, and in words related to them. Examples: knead > knyd, know > knou, knowledge > knolej, knew > kneu, knight > knait<nowiki>; </nowiki>but knee > ny, knife > naif, knuckle > nukel.
  • In a set of words of Romance origin when a morpheme starting with a vowel letter is added, the final unstressed combination -er is simplified to -r. Example: center, but centres, central. When the combination -er is a suffix, it is not simplified. Example: peinter, peinteres. Normally the combination is not simplified in words of Germanic origin. Example: acres > eikeres.
  • In a set of words when a morpheme starting with a vowel letter is added, the final unstressed combination -el is simplified to -l. Example: puzel, puzling. When the combination -el is preceded by a vowel or the letter R, it is not simplified. Examples: tauel, taueles, quorel, quoreling.
  • The diphthong /aɪ/ in word-final position, reflected in the traditional orthography with the letter Y, in the LIRA orthography is reflected with the combination ai, disregarding the origin of the word. Example: try > trai. When the morpheme -ing is added to such word, the double letter I is simplified to a single letter. Example: trying > traing (not traiing).
  • When the morpheme -ing is added to a verb ending in -ei, the double letter I is simplified to a single letter. Example: staying > steing (not steiing).
  • The sounds /əʊld/ within a single morpheme are reflected as old. Example: gold > gold, shoulder > sholder.
  • Normally when the past tense form of a verb is homonymous to another word, nothing is done to prevent ambiguity. Examples: read (past tense) > red, leant > lent.
  • In words of Germanic origin the sounds /ɜː(r)/ are reflected as: combination ur in root-final position; combination er when preceding a consonant within the same root, combination err before a vowel within the same root.
  • In words of Romance origin the sounds /ɜː(r)/ are reflected as:
    — combination ur in root-final position;
    — combination er, ir, ur before a consonant within the same root according to etymology;
    — combination err, irr, urr before a vowel within the same root according to etymology.
    When the etymology is considered, the letter U is chosen also if the source language has the letter O.

Factors considered for choice between several variants of pronunciation of a word

The LIRA orthography is mostly based on the standard American (General American) and British (Received pronunciation) norms. When several pronunciation variants exist, the following factors are considered to choose what should be reflected by the LIRA orthography (sorted roughly by decreasing importance):

1) whether the form is represented both in the language of the UK and the US;

2) which resulting spelling is shorter;

3) which spelling corresponds to the pronunciation suggested by the traditional orthography;

4) the number of native speakers who are used to such pronunciation (i. e. the American form is preferred).

Поскольку моя LIRA уже практически доведена до совершенства,
принялся развивать другой проект. Называю его "Penderscript".
Это более умеренная реформа английской орфографии, которая старается генерализовать уже имеющиеся принципы соответствий букв и звуков, и как можно меньше вводить новые.

Описание системы с перечислением основных "исправлений" приведено тут:
https://disk.yandex.ru/i/IBoHw-gXEURfpQ
Одних фонетических правил там сейчас перечислено 82 штуки.
На самом деле их намного больше, конечно.

CHAPTER WUN
A Boy at the Windoe

      For a long time after that summer, the four Penderwick sisters still tauked of Arundel. Fate drove us thare, Jane wood say. No, it wos the greedi landlord hoo sold or vacation house on Cape Cod, sumwun else wood say, probabli Skye.
      Hoo knew which wos ryte? But it wos trew that the beach house they usualli rented had been sold at the last minute, and the Penderwicks wer suddenli without summer plans. Mr. Penderwick colled everiwhare, but Cape Cod wos booked solid, and his dauters wer starting to think they wood be spending their hoal vacation at home in Cameron, Massachoosetts. Not that they didn't luve Cameron, but whot is summer without a trip to sumwhare special? Then, out of the blue, Mr. Penderwick hurd throo a frend of a frend about a cottaje in the Berkshir Mountens. It had plenti of bedrooms and a big fenced-in pen for a dog⁠—perfect for big, black, clumzi, luvable Hound Penderwick⁠—and it wos available to be rented for three weeks in August. Mr. Penderwick snatched it up, syte unseen.
      He didn't knoe whot he wos getting us into, Batti wood say. Rosalind olways sed, It's too bad Mommi never saw Arundel⁠—she wood have luved the gardens. And Jane wood say, Thare ar much better gardens in heven. And Mommi will never have to bump into Mrs. Tifton in heven, Skye added to make her sisters laff. And laff they wood, and the tauk wood moove on to uther things, until the next time sumwun remembered Arundel.
      But oll that is in the future. When or stori begins, Batti is still onli four yeers old. Rosalind is twelve, Skye eleven, and Jane ten. They'r in their car with Mr. Penderwick and Hound. The famili is on the way to Arundel and, unfortunatli, they'r lost.

Wun

      It wos as black in the closet as old blud. They had shuved me in and locked the dor. I breethed hevili throo my noze, fyting desperatli to remain calm. I tryed counting to ten on everi intake of breth, and to eit as I releesed eech wun sloeli into the darkness. Luckili for me, they had pulled the gag so tyteli into my open mouth that my nostrils wer left unobstructed, and I wos able to draw in wun sloe lungful after anuther of the stale, musti air.
      I tryed hooking my fingernails under the silk scarf that bound my hands behynd me, but since I olways bit them to the quick, thare wos nuthing to catch. Jolli good luck then that I'd remembered to put my fingertips together, uzing them as ten firm little bases to press my palms apart as they had pulled the nots tyte.
      Now I rotated my rists, squeezing them together until I felt a bit of slack, uzing my thums to werk the silk doun until the nots wer between my palms—then between my fingers. If they had been bryte enuff to think of tying my thums together, I shood never have escaped. Whot utter morons they wer.
      With my hands free at last, I made short werk of the gag.
      Now for the dor. But ferst, to be shure they wer not lying in wait for me, I squotted and peered out throo the keehole at the attic. Thank hevens they had taken the kee away with them. Thare wos nowun in syte; save for its perpetual tangle of shadoes, junk, and sad bric-a-brac, the long attic wos empti. The coast wos cleer.
      Reeching abuve my hed at the back of the closet, I unscrewed wun of the wire coat hooks from its mounting bord. By sticking its curved wing into the keehole and levering the uther end, I wos able to form an L-shaped hook which I poked into the depths of the ancient lock. A bit of judicious fishing and fiddling yeelded a gratifying click. It wos olmoast too eezi. The
dor swung open and I wos free.
