An Introduction

This website is dedicated to sharing alternative writing and spelling systems for multiple languages. Because I am a native English speaker, English writing systems will be posted first, but other languages will soon be joining. My goal is to provide extensive texts in different scripts as well as an easy way to convert any document into your favorite script. Why I am an Alternative Linguist. I enjoy languages very much. I like to precisely define the sounds that come out of our mouths so they can be recorded in written form very easily. The shortest path between the written script and spoken language must be made. A language should be able to be read by someone who natively speaks the language or not in one day. The words if fully phonetic also have more punch than words that are not fully phonetic. Try this example. Beauty is for beholding, versus byUtE iz fOr bEhOldiG. The second has more direct power because every sound corresponds to just one letter. Your brain can land each sound...

Some Keyboard Layouts

 The IPA keyboard which tells you what sounds I have assigned to the traditional qwerty keyboard. My Upper English Sound Chart to type English phonetically with no special fonts. The Keyboard for Deseret which will allow you to type the Deseret alphabet with the same sound positions as my IPA keyboard and the regular United States qwerty keyboard with my Upper English sound assignments. The keyboard for Shavian which has the same sound positions as Deseret but with Shavian characters. Because of the work that was put into this, a suggested donation would be appreciated.
