a reprint of a classic treatise about the English language in the manner of George Bernard Shaw
...it might be posible in 1950 to delve further into the posibilities of fonetik speling.
This was originally published in Astounding Science Fiction in 1946, after the terms of George Bernard Shaw's will had come to light. I am very grateful for the helpful corrections sent by several readers. Edwin Herdman kindly pointed out several errors that he found by comparing this article with his original. Reader Josh Rehman pointed out an error toward the end where the new word "bai" was incorrectly spelled "by." This is probably a typo introduced by yours truly. Reader Steve Bush sent along a very helpful list of minor errors he found as he compared my reprint with a different reprint. Interested in Spelling reform? Then take a look at Ecphorizer contributor David Koblick's article here.
