That's a great idea. We could call this language "Ynglysh" or even "Yld Syxyn".

How do you type those umlauted y's?

And now, to make things easier for you guys: Regular Expressions!
Find your favourite tool that has find/replace using regular expressions (I like textpad,) and replace
[aeiou][aeiou]+
with
ÿ
and then replace
[aeiou]
with
y

And you're all set!
I'd make a php script that does it, but I have nowhere to host it!
Edit: Ah hell, I wrote it anyway if anyone wants it :p

To be or not to be, that is the question. (Whether 'tis nobler in the mind, etc etc)

Yh yys. Nyw thys ys thy styff. Rygyx FTW! Ynd Ynglysh tÿ. :)

Nycy yny D!

(I'd host the script on THN but I fear that Haven would kill me for somehow ratifying this insane language :D )

That had started to strike me. All we need, now, is a good reason to replace something else with double Ds. Isn't a "dd" in Welsh used for an "s" sound or something?
