/Nods in agreement.
I've used it talking to friends sometime, and I've read it in a few English books (martial arts, but still), so I think it's well on it's way to being assimilated. Does anyone have any other ideas as to what foreign words should be made part of English and why? be fascinating to hear.

It's not a foreign word, but I think we should incorporate 't' into our written language.

Just the single letter 't' - we should use it to replace 'the'. Because really, it's not like 'the' is more phonetic or anything. ("Thuh" I could understand, or "thee" sometimes. But "the"?)

Save time, space, ink, and money! Use 't' instead of 'the'! Tell your friends!

EDIT: WRITTEN language, mind you. You can say 'the' all you want.
