I have put a lot of time and effort into trying to understand the English language. And you know what? I'm about done with it! Silents letters, special rules that only work for special words? WHY! No wounder why English is the hardest language to learn, it's so damn confusing.
So I'm going to show an example of what I have came up with. Simple, easy, and very hard to mess up. That is once you get the hang of it. I call this EPS, or English Phonetic Spelling.
