What a useless fukking letter. What a waste.
It either makes a "K" sound or an "S" sound, and offers no original sound of its own.
We have to kombine existing letters to get unique sounds like "TH" and "SH", but we have this loathsome waste of a letter that only makes the sounds of two different, perfektly fine letters.

Q is even more useless
Spanish shouldn't have the H.
Ç
c > k or s
qu > kw
x > ks, gz, s, or z
It's necessary for the ch sound. It could just be the ch sound by itself, but English is dumb.

Orthographical
terrible
orthographical and throughout
Fuck, I can't figure out what "doderez" means (I'm not an English native speaker)
Kek, what's this from?
that's what you get for stealing an alphabet instead of coming up with your own, albionigger
Would never have gotten throughout but for some reason I kept searching just "orthographic" which is a different thing entirely apparently, so I thought I was completely wrong
x replaces ch, sh and th
orthographical
throughout
"dodderer" basically just a typical old person with hindered movement
some issues with this:
keeping w but not y is stupid. do not respell year as ier
do not spell ch, sh, and th as c, y, and x. keep ch > c, but have sh be x and th be q
I'm noticing some missing r's in the final sentence. r's are necessary, do not remove them
overall, decent try, but could have been better
english is the poor man's german
I think its colloquial--"dodderrers" or something--as in a doddering old man.
English looks more like scandinavian languages than German.
Toplel
it's a joke
English should have kept thorn and eth.
there have been legitimate attempts to do this sort of thing, though. how do we know Twain was joking here?
There's this norwegian linguist that thinks that English is a scandinavian language
>how do we know Twain was joking here?
user, do you know where you are?
Because he wrote other stuff like this with a humorous tone and he was a humorist.
For example, there's this one where he rants about German
