[B]Australian inventor creates a special character - Ћ - to replace English language's most common word[/B] As reported by The Telegraph, Mr Mathis, who has opened more than 20 restaurants and hotels across Australia, has invested AUS $38,000 (£23,500) in the new app. But despite his optimism, it has so far been rejected by Apple.

what Ћ fuck is he thinking? on second thought, this is a great idea[IMG]http://02d9656.netsoljsp.com/SarcMark/images/graphics/rk.png[/IMG]
And what, exactly, is Ћ point of this?
Ћ? You just took that from Serbian, you Aussie punk!
we need a letter to replace the word "a"
That makes sense, though it'll never catch on.
that's not æ good idea
I prefer the
[QUOTE=muffinmastah;41381485]I prefer the[/QUOTE] the... what? THE WHAT? WHAT DO YOU PREFER?!1
We'll need a Ћ key.
oh cool it looks like 万
Ћre's no way in hell I'm going to use it
[QUOTE=cdr248;41381467]we need a letter to replace the word "a"[/QUOTE] Maybe one day we'll be able to condense nearly every English word into it's own unique letter.

My aunt Ћlma is gonna love this!
Ћ letter kinda looks like it's Cyrillic or something; doesn't really look Latin to me.
[QUOTE=KnightVista;41381507]We'll need a Ћ key.[/QUOTE] I presume his app (which was rejected) was to add it onto the apple keyboard on iPhones
[QUOTE=theblah12;41381519]Maybe one day we'll be able to condense nearly every English word into it's own unique letter.[/QUOTE] but that is the exact oposite of what english is supposed to be... its 26 characters with a set of rules that can be used to create any word possible, in languages that use single characters, things end up with stupidly weird names like shiny-box for computer, it goes against the principle of english being as flexible as possible

sounds like this was fabricated to troll the daily mail.
it works better in Ћory
Ћ is just to replace 'the' not part of a word. He compares it to &, and if you were spelling Anderson you wouldn't type it &erson

[B][I]Facepunch: Running shit into Ћ ground since 2005[/I][/B]
What the fuck man? Ћ is the cyrillic version of ć. This guy didn't invent shit, fuck him.
[QUOTE=matt.ant;41381687]Ћ is just to replace 'the' not part of a word. He compares it to &, and if you were spelling Anderson you wouldn't type it &erson[/QUOTE] But it feels so right to type "Ћy're" "Ћre" "Ћm" ect, even though it is so wrong.
