===========================================
............ Parallel English................ August 2010............
English, a nice language, has odd spellings (not reformable
within it in view of wide use). Vast information, literature are
available in it. Computer spell-checks are useful. Even then
Globish (Parallel English, with near-phonetic spellings) can
be a prelude to English.  Millions of English-users & others
will find it easy to learn. It can become future link language.
English-serving equipments are usable for Globish symbols
planned for sounds in English. Globish takes (a-z), capitals
(A-Z) to start names & original words, (not start sentences),
three dots between sentences, pictorial symbols ($ ? 3) etc

............ Set 1  Globish Symbol - Sound relations ............
a (a-alone) aa (a-art) ae (a-at) au (aw-law) b (boy) ch (chair)

26 (a-z) not enough. So take combinations (aa, ae, au) etc

hoo (Who) yalo (Yellow) jaj (Judge) kalars (Colors Colours)

thaut (Thought) thru (Through) inaf (Enough) pepar (Paper)
Split vowels-cluster. Height = h + aa + i + t (Globish) haait.
................................ Notes on set 2 ..............................
Globish changes most English words. Few exceptions like
(Go, Ink) that will not change. Few have multiple meanings
like (no = No, Know)(see = See, Sea). Select from context.
English too has multimeaning words (Saw, Bear, Hide) etc.
Caution (bat ran) etc = But Run. (baet raen) etc = Bat Ran.
Temporarily use (Who) etc in Globish if unsure of (hoo) etc.
Many capital-starting temporary words likely in initial stage.
Standardize words, later prepare E > G, G > E dictionaries.
.......................... Set 3 English sentences .....................
Necessity is the mother of invention. His daughters went to
a school. A grand rainbow was seen in the sky. Call a taxi.
Intelligent mankind needs an easy link language.
