From now on, on snakesarecool.com I will be using þe letter þorn, which makes þe same sound as Th sometimes makes in English. it was used in old english alongside ð and is used in icelandic as well. Its uppercase form is Þ and its lowercase form is þ. I am using it because þe use of th for þe same sound results in English being harder to learn due to a sound in þe language not reflected in þe alphabet, and þe inconstancy in th’s use, wiþ words like anthill and thomas including th but not having þe þ sound, and it causing speakers to begin to pronounce words þat did not have þe þ sound but had th wiþ þe þ sound, such as þe word author, which originally did not have a þ sound. to get þorn on your keyboard, you can create a keyboard shortcut or switch to icelandic keyboard, as I have done. In þe alphabet, þ is after z.
