Re:English-friendly Romanization system proposed for Japanes... by Tainnor on Monday January 06, 2025 @01:15AM (#42608175)
There's simply no reasonable way to base a transcription of another writing system on English phonology because the latter is highly irregular. It would also confuse literally anyone else who uses Latin script.

English speakers who want to pronounce words in any other language correctly will probably just have to get used to the fact that they need to unlearn some habits.
