The Problem Of Spelling Reform:

The fundamental evil does not lie in
the existence of useless letters, which in
so many cases are, in addition to their
uselessness, the records of fictitious his.
tory or perverted 'etymology. This is
something that needs especially to be in
sisted upon, because it is against these
"interesting enc1mbrances and anoma-
lies,' as the London Times calls them,
that efforts at reform !are naturally at
first directed; and what is only side
issue, though an important one, becomes
to the ,mipdssof many the main issue.
This fundamental evil, asit is generally
stated, lies in the fact that our language,
as at present spelled, has multitude of
signs for the same sound, and a multi
tude of sounds for the same sign. But
an abstract statement Of this kind means
little or nothing to the mass of men; a
fewexamples may make it mean great
deal. Let US take, for Instance, the vowel
sound, which iSseen in the words met.
s,oedt, any, saitf. says and leopard. Here
is one sound, that of short e, which is
represented in these various words by
six different signs, by e, by ae, by
a, by al, by dy, by oh. Take
again tie vowelsound heard in rude,
naope, rood r0stine,. rheuDa, dre,D,
shoe, rued, and br,sse. Here the same
sound is represented by nine signs:'byu,
by o, by 90, by on, by eu, by eD, by oe.
by ne, and by al. Take again the sound
which wer>caif -.-iong e." which was
originally with us represented by i, and
which is still so represented in other
languages. 1t is found in meet, n'ste,
meat, machine, grief, receiue, key, people,
sgis, and Is thus denoted by the mine
different signs of &c, of e, of ca, of 1, of
ie, Of Ell, Of en- of 20. of q. This will do
for one side q the shield; the other can
not be said to present more attractive
view. The sign on has six different
sounds, according as it is sound in the
words sour, pour. tCould, tour, sought
and couple; the Sign ca has i've different
sounds as seen in heat, sveaa. great heart
and heard WHAT'S true OF these vowels.
or of these combinations of vowels, is
true of all the others, and of the sounds
denoted by them. Kind, for illustration,
can be written keind, for in this way is
written Height; it can be written kuind.
for so is guile: it can be written heynd,
for so IS eye; it can be- written ky,ad, for
30 is type; it can be written tasy,sd, for so
is bay; It can be written kajad, for so is
aisle; il can be written kie,sd, for so is
relied. The whole vowel system is in a
state of chaos; and if confusion existed
to the same extent among the conso-
nants. the acquisition of English orthogra-
ply would be the work bf . life time.-
