Engreellic (Ɛŋrиlik)

The Engreellic script was devised by Derick Pinto from Mumbai (Bombay) in India. The script is an alternative way of writing English using letters from the Roman, Greek and Cyrillic alphabets and the IPA. The script was developed by first identifying all the phonemes existing in the English language and then selecting a letter from the three scripts or the IPA corresponding to that sound.

Notes

Wherever two sets of letters, divided by a comma, are indicated, the first ones are to be used at the beginning of a word and the others, in the middle or at the end of the word. The first line denotes the letter in upper and lower case, the second gives the name of the letter and the third gives the sound equivalent.
