Personal Views
Personal Views of Members of the English Spelling Society.
The alternative schemes included here show a range of carefully constructed possible ways of regularizing English spelling.
Schemes using non-standard keyboard characters are not available as web documents.
An overview of several schemes is shown by their transcription of The Star by HG Wells.
Several of these PVs state an earlier version of the TESS Aims and Objectives.
Please note that apart from a degree of limited support for TSR, the scheme favoured by the IESC, the Society does not currently endorse any specific alternatives to traditional spelling. The schemes set out below do not therefore bear the Society’s endorsement. Personal View is designed primarily to provide a forum for authors of alternative schemes to submit their contributions to peer review and comment from the general public.
