My favourite one is the one where you write your English the way it's really spoken ie. What sounds come out of your mouth !JuropijanSpeling@sopuli.xyz

So confused as a german speaker xD Those Ös and Äs just don't make sense this way 😂

Well then, it would be great to see a post by a German speaker there! Do it your way!

I think you'd be surprised how close it would actually be, seeing how German spelling is almost spot on to the written word. Like here for example. I took the liberty to steal your post

Bii tö tseints juu vant to sii in tis völd." Du juu häv ä feivörit kvout?

"Be the change you want to see in this world" Do you have a favorite quote?

Good job on "quote" that's creative spelling. In "Vörld" the o in this case is actually an ö when looking at it with a German pronunciation. Now, this is my attempt at that sentence:

"Bie dä tschänsch ju want to sie in dis wörld" Du ju hef ä fevorit quote?

I have not seen this kind of language, so I assume it's a new trend for English speaker. In the DACH region, writing like you speak your accent is a pretty common thing outside the major towns. I'll leave you with a pretty complex example where the writer tried to show the pronunciation by using different circumflex to show how different letters are pronounced. https://pasteboard.co/rMJcvSHAFx6g.jpg It's pretty extreme, but if you are fluent in any German alpine dialect you will have little problem reading it.

Don't really follow any big communities here (except for this one), just smaller ones specific to my personal interests.
