"Refom de speling" hou wud ju go abaut dat?

(Croatian way - write what you hear)

Which means you're putting non-rhotic accents first and you'd erase the "th" sound completely?

I am not sure but probably.

How about the Finnish version:

"Reform te spelling" hau vuud juu gou abaut tät?

Now you have (at least) two different pronunciations of the letter t, while "would" and "you" now suddenly contain a long vowel?

If you think American English is bad, you should see British English.

And before any Brits get their panties in a twist: no, all the unnecessary additions of "u" aren't original. You all did that after the American Revolution. You collectively had such a temper tantrum over losing a colony that you butchered your own language. Congratulations.
