Reply #11: A horrible language to spell

[izquierdista]

Second only to the worst language of all time, French. Both of these snooty languages need to come down off their high horse and have a well thought out plan to conform the spelling to the actual modern day pronunciation. Languages where this has been done have seen an increase in literacy (not too bad a problem in England and France, I'll admit) and it cuts the problems with dyslexia to almost none. But where to start? If you think the health insurance lobby had the country tied up in knots, wait until you try to take on the schoolmarms and anal-retentive grammarians.
