  1. Irish is quite beautiful indeed.

  2. Or just write voiced "the" as "dhe". "Dhis", "dhere", "dhat", "dhem", "dhose".

  6.  @donnarichardson7214  All languages do this when borrowing foreign words, adapting them to their own set of grammatical rules. Pretty sure you don't use all the different declensions with Latin words in English.

  8. German and Icelandic sound nothing alike. It's like saying French and Spanish sound similar. They may share a common ancestor but their pronunciation have changed a lot.

  10. Or just write "kw". No need for another symbol.

  12. Digrams (sh, ch) are absolutely not confusing, except for "th" which can either be voiced (that) or unvoiced (thief). I propose using "th" for the unvoiced "thief" and "dh" for the voiced "dhat". If you want to bring back ancient letters for these two sounds, you should bring back both thorn and eth. Otherwise, you're not actually simplifying spelling...

  18. The real problem with English spelling is the vowels, not the consonants. English vowel sounds don't make any sense whatsoever.

  21. The reason to not bring back the letter eth is questionable. A lot of letters of the Latin alphabet look similar to other letters in other writing systems/are not used the same way in different languages, that's not a reason we should stop using them. Especially since "eth" and "thorn" could write two different sounds: voiced and unvoiced th.

  23. Apart from "men, women, children" and "lives, wives etc" which are very frequent words, I absolutely hate irregular plurals. I find them unnecessarily pedantic. We aren't speaking Greek, Latin or Italian but English. We should just add an 's' and call it a day.
