IPA in spreadsheets (was: antedating "hobo" 1885)

[Tom Zurinskas]

Don't guess Kari.  Demonstrate to us.  Put truespel next to other notations and demonstrate which is more intuitive.  Use the free converter at truespel.com to write the truespel.  Meanwhile check IBM's Writing to Read method which tested thousands of k-1 kids in a huge study by ETS and CAL.  Kids learned phonetics first before tradspel and transitioned just fine.

You might try this short story that contains all the phonemes of USA English.  "That quick beige fox jumped into the air over each thin dog.  Look out I shout, for he's foiled you again, creating chaos.  Here me say it below.
