Share Basic Literacy

Please Help

Thank you for visiting!

781 million people are illiterate today (Wikipedia) (map)

Of over 7000 languages spoken today over 3000 are unwritten (Ethnologue). Must we ignore these precious humans?

Share literacy for good reasons!

This page shows my recent innovation: sound charts labelled with mechanical drawings.

No Latinate vocabulary (labial velar fricative ...), no common language; this requires only human anatomy and the preliterate ability to perceive your own mouth.

This potentially enables giving basic literacy to illiterate speakers of even unwritten languages for no cost.

But most of all, become a teacher, and teach! If you can read, write, and talk, and want to help your fellow humans, you are qualified. All you need do is
- Learn how to justify and motivate it,
- Learn how to present it,
- Print the thing
- Pass it out,
- explaining it,
- to those who could use it.
