As some of you may be aware, a few of us have been playing about with the English Language as she is writ. carola kicked it off with 'phart' and it grew from there. It has now morphed into another monster. The 1st rule of bad spelling club is as follows:

1. Any word containing the letter 'f' has the 'f' replaced with 'ph'.
2. Any word containing the letters 'ph' has those replaced with 'f'

eg Filip took a phantastic fotograf of his phriend Phred.

Rob has now created the 2nd rule for bad spelling - and it's a bagger: for every 'a' put a 'u' and vice versa (well, I suggested that bit).

eg It's not anusaul phor my Uant Uguthu to phall in love on u duily busis.

Your post can be about anything as long as the spelling is suitably mangled. Good lack, ull! DD

    Yoar lust sentence wus perfect! Is it me or does it ull become a little Brammie in its tone? A short phuiry story to phollow:

    Fillip sut phucing Phionu across the tuble in the restuarunt, trying to reud her thoaghts phrom the phleeting expressions on her phuce. He wunted to tuke her in his urms, and tulk qaietly in her eur, to reussare her ull woald be well. Her freqaent boats of deufness however, mude it hurd to declure his phizzing pheelings oph uphphection - shoating these things oat load never soands us thoagh they ure traly phelt. Suddenly he reculled Fillipu, a ludy anuphphected by a luck of heuring. Time phor u chunge, Fillip urgaed with himselph, I'll phind Filliupu ut the phoantuin neur the Wur Memoriul in the purk. He wuved phurewell to Phionu and phloanced oat. Phin. DD

    Uvoid thut word. Even with an upostrofe, it's too risky! Ase the phull phorm, cunnot - even thut's a bit dodgy tho now I cun see it. Ulternatives: will not, (won't) shall not (shun't), might not (mightn't (oach)), could not (couldn't). Or chunge the whole sentence. DD

    Unywuy, to continae:

    Fillip sut phucing Phionu across the tuble in the restuarunt, trying to reud her thoaghts phrom the phleeting expressions on her phuce. He wunted to tuke her in his urms, and tulk qaietly in her eur, to reussare her ull woald be well. Her freqaent boats of deufness however, mude it hurd to declure his phizzing pheelings oph uphphection - shoating these things oat load never soands us thoagh they ure traly phelt. Suddenly he reculled Fillipu, a ludy anuphphected by a luck of heuring. Time phor u chunge, Fillip urgaed with himselph, I'll phind Filliupu ut the phoantuin neur the Wur Memoriul in the purk. He wuved phurewell to Phionu and phloanced oat.

    Phionu wus nor too apset ubout Filiph's sadden furewell. She hud noticed his tendency to phlounce ufter her frequent boats of deuphness bephore, und she thoaght him quite phickle in his uphphections. Filiph phound Filliphu stunding by the phountuin as he hud hoped.

    ''Well, phuncy seeing yoa'', she suid. ''Do you feel like going for u wulk, or shull we huve u cap of teu in the cufe?'' Filiph looked ut Filliphu's's fuce, und he reulised thut the phizzing pheelings he hud phelt for Phionu previoasly were jast a phleeting phuntusy. Now he phelt phuntusic! ''Uh, Filliphu'', he excluimed,''I reully phuncy yoa!''
