And like DGG said, we're fortunate to have a single
internaʃonal
standard in the first place.
I had a thought. We put so much cultural value into proper spelliŋ.
One of the reasons for why theres so much dislike for a strange scheme
like IPA is that repelling English words using a different scheme
works to destroy the deeply-engrained informaʃon about word
etymologies stored in "proper" spelling.
