Simpel-Fonetik method of writing

Simpel-Fonetik is a system of English-language spelling reform that simplifies the reading, writing, and pronunciation of words in English. It was created by Allan Kiisk, a multilingual (English, German, Latin, and Estonian) professor of engineering.

Based on phonetic languages including Estonian, Finnish, and Hawaiian, it removes common difficulties of learning to communicate in English by correlating one unique letter per sound and one sound per letter.

Basic principles
Simpel-Fonetik writing is based on the following principles:


 * 1) Each letter represents only one spoken sound
 * 2) There is a letter for each basic sound in the English language
 * 3) Double letters (two adjacent identical letters) represent long vowels and strong consonants.

Alphabet
The Simpel-Fonetik alphabet is based on the Latin script, with the addition of three letters with diacritics: ä, ö, and ü (with umlaut). The alphabet does not include the letters c, q, x, or y, which are only used when writing unassimilated foreign terms or proper names.

The 25-letter alphabet is:
