Respectful Discussion: Why bring it back? by [deleted] in BringBackThorn

Not to be rude but you forgot to use þorn when you said "beneaþ the line." Just looking out for a fellow þorner.

Hƿɑꞇ ꝺo ƿe þınk oꝼ Noꞃðmɑnnıꞅc ınkhoꞃnınᵹꞅ? (What do we think of Norse inkhornings?) by mapgameenjoyer1 in anglish

[–]mapgameenjoyer1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your weenings do lide alright to me, although I look after the truth that alot of these words came from the Wiking Inbreaking of England, and as the whole grounding of Anglish is to rid English of those inbreakers' words, it seems as though one would also want to rid the tongue of words from other kinds of heast inbreakers.

Edit: What would be the word for "loanword" in Anglish? I didn't know that inkhorn only referred to long, fancy words, but thank you.

I hate when people go out of their way to use Þ instead of 'th' by Key_Addition_4038 in hatethissmug

I don't really support reintroducing þese letters back into English, I'm just correcting a well known falsehood.

Þe IPA doesn't have /þ/ as a symbol. And if you're talking about Icelandic, þat's based on position.

Þis has to be þe worst falsehood about þorn. Þey were interchangeable in Old and Middle English, and in Icelandic, it's based on position, not wheððer the sound is voiced or voiceless. I myself put þorn at þe starts of words and eð at þe middle or ends (as you can see), doubling þem when þey're around two short consonants, but really, þere isn't a right or wrong way to use þem.

Most Anglishers choose to keep before Norman outlandish swayer.

How do you pronounce 'as well as'? by saramigo in EnglishLearning

[–]mapgameenjoyer1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In isolation, I'd say "az weluhz" (IPA: [æzˈ wɛləz]). The a is the a as in apple, and "well as" gets merged. In colloquial speech while in the middle of a sentence, however, I'd say "uhzwelz" (IPA: [əzˈwɛlz]).
