Drawth
This leaf is a drawth wordwrestling a riddle or a wen that has arisen in the making of Anglish. See other drawths.

New Spellings are needed for some words in Anglish. These are words which have been misspelt in English for a long time but have never been rightened there. It is now upon us to put back good spellings for these words.

Feel free to put thine own words in the list, with or without a new spelling. Or, if thou canst not settle with the new spelling given, put thine own in next to the others.

Put thine own thoughts on talk for other to think anent. When everyone has settled on a new spelling for a word, it can be put to work over the whole Moot.

Heed: this is not the right leaf to put forward a whole new spelling for Anglish, that leaf is at Spelling. Only words with truly awful spellings are to be put here.
