No more Roman? How will you explain Shavian to the next generation?
Do you introduce a new code in the new code? Here is some history on
one new code that did not follow this route.

Subject: Re: [shawalphabet] On the benefits of a Voiced/Unvoiced Distinction in Shaw A...

Toggle Shavian
Paul,

From a teachers point of view, an ambiguous TH is not a problem because most
of the words involved are high frequency and rather short.

Children have already mastered how TH words are pronounced so they pick up
rather fast that thought is pronounced thot Tot and the is pronounced THa Ha

The problem is for non-native English speakers.

-Steve
This is just an additional point on the benefits of a Voiced/Unvoiced
Distinction in the Shaw Alphabet.
How does an English Student learn when to pronounce the TH sound.
How does he know when it is voiced and when it is not other than
memorizing every occurrence of this sound in English.
I used to Think if it was at the beginning of a word, specifically
one of the Definate Pronouns (The, This, That, Those, Thee, Thou,
than, then, there, though) then it was voiced and in all other
instances not. Then I found some exceptions, mostly in old English or
Germanic
Loan words where it was also voiced (Mother, Father, Brother, other,
lathe, bathe). But bath was unvoiced.
The exceptions mounted. It is much better to have it spelled out, as
in Shavian.

Regards, Paul V.
