This was first introduction to Anglish for me, but it seemed to make much more sense than modern English. Anglish seemed to have a lot less discrepancy – probably because all the words have the same logic instead of mismatch between different languages.
At least for somebody like me, to whom English is non-native language, Anglish would be an easier language to learn. It also seems that the pronounciation of the Anglish words has much less weirdness.
I would love to see Pale Blue Dot speech in Anglish but I cannot do it myself. It appears that ChatGPT is not fluent with Anglish either. However, I was able to get it to emit following:
"Look at that speck, that is us, all man-kind, on that mote of dust, in the vastness of space. That is the Earth, our home, a speck in the cosmic ocean, no bigger than a pixel in a photograph."
I would guess "photograph" should be something else, though.
