Atanasoff Designs New Alphabet to Simplify Writing
Computer inventor John Vincent Atanasoff proposes a novel phonetic alphabet with 39 symbols to map each speech sound, aiming for high legibility and machine compatibility. He argues language systems with one symbol per sound reduce illiteracy, noting English uses 379 letters for 43 sounds while Chinese and Japanese rely on ideographic scripts.
