📣 New Podcast! "Be You Spell Your Words The Way You Hear Them Gabe Henry's Enough Is Enuf" on @spreaker spreaker.com/episode/be-you…
How would you fix English spelling? Put your suggestions in comments, and let's hope we don't break everything. Our upcoming episode is with @_GabeHenry, author of "Enough Is Enuf: Our Failed Attempts to Make English Easier to Spell" from @deystreet
What do Benjamin Franklin, Noah Webster, Theodore Roosevelt, and Andrew Carnegie have in common? They all tried, and failed, to simplify English spelling. I dive into this weird history with @_GabeHenry, author of "Enough is Enuf," in my latest article.
Honored to be mentioned in the same breath as @JohnHMcWhorter. Particularly if that breath comes from the incredible @sapinker.
