English is fast becoming the standard language on Earth. It's time to revise it to make it easier to learn and use. Read how this can be done!
The English language is the language of choice for modern business, international trade, global communication, computer applications, and international travel. It is also the top choice for non-English speakers who study a second language. It is already the de facto standard language for the world and its usage is expanding fast.
Now it's time to remove defects in English. Author Bill Dommett has determined what revisions would vastly improve it for use by the whole world.
English is very imperfect because it is a composite language, having absorbed spelling and grammar from other languages centuries ago, and because of scientific advances, including the introduction of computers.
English is not phonetic, so written and spoken forms don't always agree. Hearing new words won't always indicate the spelling; and seeing new words won't always indicate the pronunciation. All vowels and several consonants in written English have more than one sound, so the current alphabet doesn't cater for all the sounds. Learners can experience ambiguity and incorrect interpretation.
There are many silent and unnecessary letters in written English, which are not in spoken English. It also has irregular grammar rules for commonly used words, especially irregular verbs. For most rules, there are many exceptions that have to be learned by heart.
Throughout his career, Bill was heavily involved in preparing, writing, analysis, editing and presentation of scientific information. These included research papers, advisory articles for industry, lectures to tertiary students and industry personnel, seminar and conference papers, supervision of Master's degree students, theses, reports and work manuals. Other work included standard methods development and systems analysis and design of scientific industry programs, with and without computers.
Especially during editing of papers, Bill became aware of where improvements could be made in the text, tables, graphs and diagrams to make them more effective in communicating the key aspects of the work to the readers or audience in logical, easy-to-follow styles.
Bill has written one book called Is Your Picture Worth 1,000 Words? for people working in business, science, engineering, technology, education, societies and clubs. The book guides the reader on how to make their tables, charts, graphs and diagrams more effective and addresses various problems involved in presenting visual information.
This second book focusses on the many imperfections in the English language and offers for serious consideration a revised English language which is free of many of the defects, thus making the language easier and quicker to learn and to use. Improvements include: a unique expanded truly phonetic alphabet with English-derived unambiguous symbols for each sound; rigid
Bill has now retired and lives in Brisbane, Australia.
