Universal Declaration of Human Rights wiþ Þ

Ðe UDHR is ðe most translated document in ðe world. I rewrote many of ðe digraphs in it wiþ þ, ð, ŋ and some cyrillic letters as a little experiment (ðe ones wiþ distinct consonant phonemes like th, sh or ng, I haven't decided what чanges I like for wh and gh or difþoŋs). Ðis reduced ðe number of letters in ðe document by about 4%. Unsurprisiŋly around half of ðe digraphs eliminated were th, mostly from ðe word "the".

I know I'm probably in a minority here for usiŋ cyrillic letters. Let me know what you þink!
