Spelling Reform 1 or Spelling Reform step 1 (more commonly known as SR1) is an English spelling reform proposal advocated by British/Australian linguist Harry Lindgren. It calls for the short sound (as in ''bet'') to always be spelt with E. For example, ''friend'' would become ''frend'' and ''head'' would become ''hed''. SR1 was part of a 50-stage reform that Lindgren advocated in his book ''Spelling Reform: A New Approach'' (1969). Spelling Reform 1 had some success in Australia. In 1975, the Australian Teachers' Federation adopted SR1 as a policy,〔("Spelling Reform 1 - And Nothing Else!" ). ''Simplified Spelling Society Newsletter''.〕 although the Federation dissolved in 1987.〔(Australian Teachers Federation (1937 - 1987) ). ''Australian Trade Union Archives''.〕 However, there is no evidence outside this text that the system was "adopted widely". Examples: * represented by a: any→eny * represented by ai: said→sed * represented by ea: ready→redy * represented by ei: heifer→hefer * represented by eo: jeopardy→jepardy * represented by ie: friend→frend * represented by u: bury→bery * represented by ue: guess→gess The following short poem is an example of SR1:
==Stage 1== Using SR1 as a starting point, the Simplified Spelling Society (SSS) created a five-part reform proposal called Stage 1.〔("The Society's 1984 Proposals" ). ''Journal of the Simplified Spelling Society'' (February 1988).〕 The proposals were first printed in the November 1983 edition of the society's newsletter.〔 In April 1984 they were adopted as the 'house style' of the SSS at its yearly meeting.〔 The SSS said that the reforms could be used either together or individually (as a step-by-step change).〔("Tough Though Thought - and we call it correct spelling!" ). ''Simplified Spelling Society'' (1984).〕 Their four extra proposals are: ;DUE DUE stands for "Drop Useless Es". This proposal would remove the letter E from words where it is unneeded or misleading. This would mean dropping the E at the end of ''have'' but not at the end of ''behave'', because the E makes the A sound longer (see "magic e"). :Thus: are→ar, were→wer, give→giv, have→hav, some→som, because→becaus, gauze→gauz, leave→leav, freeze→freez, sleeve→sleev, valley→vally, achieve→achiev, examine→examin, practise→practis, opposite→opposit, involve→involv, serve→serv, heart→hart. ;ph Change 'ph' to 'f' when it is sounded as . :Thus: photo→foto, telephone→telefone, physical→fysical. ;augh *Shorten ‘augh’ to ‘au’ when it is sounded as . :Thus: caught→caut, fraught→fraut, daughter→dauter. *Change 'augh' to 'af' when the sound is . :Thus: laugh→laf, draught→draft. ;ough *Shorten 'ough' to 'u' when it is sounded as . :Thus: through→thru. *Shorten 'ough' to ‘o’ when it is sounded as . :Thus: though→tho, although→altho (but doh for dough). *Shorten ‘ough’ to ‘ou’ when it is sounded as . :Thus: bough→bou, drought→drout, plough→plou. *Change 'ough' to ‘au’ when it is sounded as . :Thus: bought→baut, ought→aut, thought→thaut. *Change 'ough' to 'of' or 'uf' (depending on the pronunciation) when there is the sound . :Thus: cough→cof, enough→enuf, tough→tuf. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「SR1」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
