Have you ever...? 2
Another thought inducer.
Have you ever thought about why there are only 26 letters in the English alphabet?
Why aren't there anymore than 26? What if you were to make your own letter, how would you integrate it into the now current alphabet? What would it look like? What sound would it make? Would you have to make new words for your new letter to be included in or would it replace other letters in the current words? Just something to think about. I know it's not really explained fully, but you should know what I'm getting at.
