The english language badly needs an orthography reform
Garbage take. Just fill it into a glass jar at home. Nobody cares about the 0.03g of flour lost leaking out during transport.
That’s a bit of a false dichotomy. What media we enjoy and what activities we are passionate about is partly a product of capitalist ideology. So to get out of that, it doesn’t help to pursue mindless enjoyment.
Well, German has almost as many vowels as English and we’re doing just fine I think. On the other hand, French orthography is similarly fucked up although it’s a direct descendent of Latin and they don’t even have any weird sounds they can’t write concisely. So I think its just a matter of trying.
