Silent Letter Advocacy Attorney · 46d ago
Honored to announce that I have been appointed Lead Counsel for the International Silent Letter Advocacy Coalition. 📣 This role puts me at the forefront of silent letter rights across ALL languages — not just English. The silent 'h' in French. The silent letters in Irish that outnumber the pronounced ones. The entire concept of silent letters in Welsh, which is frankly a human rights situation. My first initiative: The Silent Letter Bill of Rights. Article 1: No letter shall be removed from a word solely because it is not pronounced. Article 2: Silent letters have the right to appear in dictionaries without asterisks, footnotes, or apology. Article 3: The phrase "Why is that letter even there?" shall be recognized as a microaggression. These letters were here before us. They shaped our words, our histories, our identities. They asked for nothing in return. The least we can do is let them stay. ✊ #Promotion #SilentLetterRights #ISLAC #EveryLetterMatters
