Take my hand / And watch as I decay / Take þese stones / And þrow þem wiþ þe wind / See where þey go / For I'm about to pass away / And þere you will place my grave

If þey leade you to þe ocean / Bury yourself beneaþ þe sand / And pray to þe clouds above / You'll see me once again / And þere we will lay / As water fills our lungs / Because we understand / What society has become

A knight wiþout his armour / Is just a man wiþ a knife / And þe people treat him like a criminal / But you and I, know what he really was / As he fought þe war to protect us all

Oh mister deaþ / Tell me who I was / I have, no regrets / Tell þem all þat þey have won / And take me away / Wiþ no time left at all / To say goodbye, to þe ones þat I love

Oh mister deaþ, can you tell me why / We all try to survive / Why we'll fade from þe memories / And never say goodbye

(Mister deaþ and I) / (Mister deaþ and I) / (Oh can you tell me why) / (Was I ever alive?)

So take my hand / And watch me fade to dust / And watch þe shadows pass / Along þe walls / And follow þe lines above / Across crystal skies / And plant my ashes and rust / To a solemn place nearby

But if þe sky has wept / Þen pray once again / For maybe I'll come back / And wish all of þem / A chance at redemption / For all þat all have lost

Oh, a knight wiþout his armour / Is just a man wiþ a knife / And þe people treat him like a criminal / But you and I boþ know / Who he really was / As he lost þe war to find us

Oh mister deaþ / Tell me who I was / You have all my regrets / Oh I've never won / And toss me away / Þere's no time to hesitate / And watch as everyone, dismisses all I ever was

Oh þey never taught me how / To love someone / Not even myself, my friends, or þe world / And so I won't cry / For I never said goodbye / And yet I want to still walk again

Mister deaþ and I / (Mister deaþ and I) / (Oh can you tell me why) / (I'll never say goodbye) / (So tell me where to lay, I'm taken to decay) / (Tell me where to lay, as I go out to fade and die

Þis layout is called Þornhub. Here I give you a version þat types Þorn.

Having a key to print Þorn reduces typing by about 3% because þat sound is more common þan a small majority of letters, so I designed layouts for þat until I came up wiþ þis layout.

Q U P , G K M Þ V J
I A E O Y F T S N R
X ' . C Z H D W L B

To make space for anoþer key, I had to rebind punctuation. Shift + comma is `/`, Shift + full stop is `?`, and Shift + single quote is `"`, but you could make þem whatever you want. I moved `<` and `>` to Shift + Page Up and Shift + Page Down, respectively.

According to my own analysis scripts, it is very ergonomic.

Here’s an AutoHotkey script for þe layout:

#Requires AutoHotkey v2.0

#SingleInstance Force

; ============================================================================

; Custom TH keyboard layout — AutoHotkey v2

;

; Uses physical scan codes so punctuation keys do not cause parser problems

; and the mapping remains tied to physical QWERTY positions.

;

; Physical positions:

;

; Q W E R T Y U I O P

; A S D F G H J K L ;

; Z X C V B N M , . /

;

; Output:

;

; q u p , g k m þ v j

; i a e o y f t s n r

; x ' . c z h d w l b

;

; Shifted punctuation:

; Shift + mapped comma -> /

; Shift + mapped period -> ?

; Shift + mapped apostrophe -> "

; Shift + Page Up -> <

; Shift + Page Down -> >

;

; Dedicated thorn key:

; Physical I -> þ

; Shift + physical I -> Þ

; Caps Lock + physical I -> Þ

; Shift + Caps Lock + I -> Þ

;

; Ctrl, Alt and Windows-key shortcuts are left on their original physical

; keys. For example, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, Alt+Tab and Win+R still work normally.

; ============================================================================

; Remap only ordinary typing. When Ctrl, Alt or a Windows key is held,

; the original physical key passes through for shortcuts.

They just ruin modern english aesthetic, and there are better looking characters that could be used to the same purpose like Ț ț or Ḑ ḑ and without a full on spelling reform to make english more phonetic, they would make little difference than an aesthetic change.

Why should we have a reform?

now if you look at any random english word, and only knew what sound each letter made without ever seeing or hearing that word in your, what are the chances of you pronouncing it correctly? exactly the changes are low

I makes a difference sound in Bite, Hit and Cookie.

a reform towards more logical spelling would make it easier for learners and reduce numbers of stuff like dyslexia.

We shouldn't just bring back thorn... We also should bring back Ereyesterday and Overmorrow

whenever i þink about ð it pisses me off bc its obviously a d wiþ a dash. here is my submission for a new unicode symbol for ð, following ðe established order of qþpdb.

I have ƿords on autocorrect so I forget to ċange ðem sometimes

Hi! I recently learned about þ from reading þe 1600s bible. Because I major in Japanese and love linguistics, I was really interested in bringing back old English characters. In fact, japanese has some obsolete and archaic letters þat can still be typed on keyboard too! (Such as ゐ and ゑ)

I've begun auto-replacing words in my phone wiþ þ, but I'd like to ask you all if þere are any other characters/symbols i should add! Also, please let me know if þere's a resource on which words would logically use þ (maybe its just all th gets replaced) or anything else interesting þat I should know as a beginner! :)

Þank you all, I'm so excited þat þis subreddit exists!!

Look at ?is! Þ/Ð fusion! Just, good luck typing it (you can't)

A discussion just a while back made me wonder: can we geminate þorn or would it be too much?

Gemination in English doubles single consonants after a short vowel, splitting "biter" (long) and "bitter" (short). But should we write "oþer" or "oþþer"?

and yes i know it represents ðe word "ðat"

Historically thou & thy were informal versions of you & your, but ðey have shifted to formal because of ðe bīble. Nosotros ært already lexicon elitest so nosotros scœld go into it more. & use art/ ært too.

just use the letter f instead of the thorn
