Dutchbros what the fuck is this
Nothing triggers me more than languages that count diglyphs as a single letter.
I don't like consonant clusters, but the solution isn't to pretend that they are one symbol.
>>66659621
In our defence, most people write it as a single symbol.
>>66660020
then just replace it with Ÿÿ or at least Ýý
>>66660185
shut the fuck up schlomo
>>66660185
THIS i never understood why we write it seperately on the internet, dutch people are so stupid
>>66660596
shut the fuck up mohammed
>>66659553
it is an IJ
>>66660366
>>66660651
>>66660690
Diacritics >>> Diglyphs
>>66660738
do you speak jiddisch?
>>66660840
No, I don't speak German.

If your language has more or less than 26 letters it's not a real language
>>66661273
>don't even have their own language

English honestly should have more, sh, th, and ch for example should all have their own letters. Th should have two seeing as how it represents two different sounds.
There's 24 consonant sounds and as many as 21 vowel sounds depending on what variety of English you speak, so ideally there'd be 45 letters that would see varying use depending on the variety of English spoken.
>>66661273
IJ is not 1 letter bro
but we do capitalize both
iceland = IJsland
>>66660738
polyglyphs > diacritics
we could do with just 23 letters or fewer because we use a shittone of polyglyphs
>>66661558
>polyglyphs
>>66660185
ÿ looks wrong. That doesn't look like the dots belong on the i and the j. and because of knowing german it makes a weird "oo" sound in my head, like an ümlauted y
>>66661631
ij when in handwriting is written as one letter tho
>>66661696
>handwriting
welcome to the future man. people type
though I would like a keyboard with a designated IJ button like old typewriters used to have
i like this one
>>66661631
Then Ýý, or even go nuts with something like Y̊ẙ or Ỹỹ
>>66661797
or you know an ''ei'' like the germans
>>66661797
dutch people don't care about aesthetics, it's never going to be changed
>>66662014
that explains the flag
>>66662091
>tfw when we used to have the goat tricolor
>>66662206
It would be so recognizable. I don't think any other serious country has orange in their flag.
>>66662273
IT WOULD BE RECOGNISABLE IF NOT EVERY FUCKING COUNTRY ON EARTH STOLE OR DESIGN AND COLOURS
>>66662907
this.
>first tricolor
>first use of red white and blue
we were first
the red white and blue design is older too btw
>>66662273
new Dutch conventions:
mij -> mÿe, wij -> wÿe
ou, etc. -> au
oe, etc. -> uu...
other than that, ij -> ÿ.
For example:
Puusje mau, kom eens gau,
ik heb lekkere melk voor jau!
En voor mÿe rÿstebrÿ.
O, wat heerlÿk smullen wÿe!
Hondje blaf, waf, waf, waf,
blÿf jÿe van mÿn lekkers af.
Deze kuuk is van mÿe.
En voor jau is er ook wat bÿ.
Kipje tok, tok, tok, tok,
kom eens in mÿn kippenhok.
Leg voor mÿe 'n lekker ei.
O, wat heerlÿk smullen wÿe!
>>66663033
Not gonna lie, that looks pretty gud
>>66663033
that looks more aesthetic im my uneducated opinion
t. non-dutch speaker
>>66663033
we already have uu and that makes a different sound
and i think ij is > a e s t h e t i c
you are right about ou and au
why would mij and wij be different from the other ij's? it's the same sound
>>66663033
>>66663286
appendix:
we could also just use the y instead of ij, afrikaans does that and it looks cool
Wat verrassend hierby mag wees is dat die syfer van swart Afrikaanssprekendes gestyg het van omtrent 0,24 miljoen in 2007 tot 0,29 miljoen in 2010. As redes daarvoor word onder meer die bevolkingsgroei in Namibië asook in die Vrystaat en die noordelike deel van Suid-Afrika vermoed waar Afrikaans die meesgebruikte taal onder werkers in die landbou is wat sodoende die taal ook by die huis gebruik.
>>66663419
hmmmmmmmmmmm i wonder why afrikaans does it hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

>Jidysz
>Tsch = polish cz = czech č
Your people used to use QUADGRAPHS, its even more retarded than polish cz sz dz dź dż dz ch and rz.
>>66663419
Don't you already use y for a different sound?
>>66663472
>your people
excuse me but Hebrew has no polygraphs and Yiddish (which I don't speak) only has two digraphs
>>66663481
only in loan words and there it makes existing sounds (j and ie)
yoghurt is the only word i can think of from the top of my head
>>66663603
then I take back my suggestion of using ÿ or ý. Just use y
>>66663558
So plz tell me how did Jews write polish cz sound?
>>66659621
>triggered by languages
are you also triggered by grass that grows too slow?
>>66663748
Doesn't occur naturally in Hebrew. In loan words we use the letter צ (equivalent to Polish c) with an apostrophe
צ'רצ'יל - Churchil
>>66663914
>>66663748
Oh apparently Yiddish did have diglyphs and even triglyphs, but it's just a meme-dialect of German so I don't care.
>>66663558
>>66663748
you mean וי and יי?
I actually speak Yiddish, and as far as using way too many characters to represent simple sounds it's definitely up there (albeit being very logical).
For example, in Yiddish the sound /ʒ/ would be written as zsh.
the sound of the letter g (/dʒ/) would be dzsh.
The polish cz sound is written as tsh, and some of the original Yiddish spellings have been preserved in modern Hebrew (i.e. טשרניחובסקי).
>>66661273
We should still have Þ and æ, desu

אני לא ממש מחשיב את טש או תש בתור דיגליף כי גם אם אתה קורא את כל אחת המאותיות בנפרד אז עדיין יווצר הצליל, זה לא כמו

>>66664220
הבנתי, הגיוני סה"כ (אולי אפילו יותר מצ', למרות שאני עדיין לא סובל צירופי אותיות כאלה).
אבל אף אחד לא יכול לשכנע אותי שיש הגיון כלשהו בלכתוב משהו כמו "ניו דזשערזי". יידיש שפה די נוראית בקטע הזה.
>>66664372
זה נראה כאילו האורטוגרפיה מבוססת ברמה מסויימת על פולנית, אבל למה לעזאזל לבסס משהו על אורטוגרפיה כל כך גרועה כמו של פולנית?!

>Th should have two letters
A single þ will do as we don't disguish the differences between a voiced ð and an unvoiced þ sound.
Take for example; mother
It uses a ð sound. But if you use it with a þ sound, it won't make any difference in meaning, it'll just sound weird is all
While in Icelandic, if you use the wrong dental fricative in a word, it'll potentially be a whole different word. Which is why they would need two distinguishing letters ð þ.
Although in english, having a þ letter would be pretty cool looking it won't necessarily be needed because if you see a Th in a word, it'll always make a dental fricative sound of the two. Unless it's in a name maybe.
I new two separate unrelated guys with the name brotham.
One said it like brot-ham. While the other said it like broþam.
That's the only reason i can think we'd need a Þþ letter.
