Ingglish – What if English spelling made sense?
My 5-year-old is learning to read and I keep having to say "yeah sorry, that letter is silent" and "no, those letters make a different sound in this word." So I built Ingglish — English where every letter always makes the same sound. "ough" alone makes 6 different sounds (though, through, rough, cough, thought, bough). In Ingglish, every letter has one sound, no silent letters, no exceptions. - Paste text to see it translated instantly - Translate any webpage while preserving its layout - Chrome extension to browse the web in Ingglish - Fully reversible — Ingglish text can be converted back…

Hi everybody. I occasionally make little browser-based games, and this is my latest attempt. It's not quite done, but it's quite playable (note: it does include audio): https://www.omiword.com/ This has been my occasional tinker target for ~5 years now, starting in the early days of Covid. The objective is to drag letter tiles within certain boundaries to spell four common American-English words. It hasn't got ads or anything, it's just supposed to be fun for its own sake. If people happen to like it, I might add an option for folks to make a small, one-time payment to unlock…
