1. The Chaos

   "The Chaos" is a poem demonstrating the irregularity of English spelling and pronunciation. Written by Dutch writer, traveller, and teacher Gerard Nolst Trenité, it includes about 800 examples of irregular spelling. The first version of 146 lines of text appeared in an appendix to the author's 1920 textbook Drop Your Foreign Accent: engelsche uitspraakoefeningen, but "the most complete and authoritative version ever likely to emerge", published by The Spelling Society in 1992–93, has 274 lines. To demonstrate the flavour of the poem, the opening lines are: Dearest creature in creation Studying English pronunciation, I will teach you in my verse Sounds like corpse, corps, horse and worse. and the closing lines are: Finally, which rhymes with enough, Though, through, bough, cough, hough, sough, tough?? Hiccough has the sound of cup... My advice is: GIVE IT UP! These lines are set out as in the author's version, with alternate couplets indented and the problematic words italicised.

1. The Chaosnoun

   the antithesis of The Cosmos and classified as one of the three lesser existences. The collective term for all instances of disorder, irregularity, volatility, and unknownness present in The Cosmos. The true extent of The Chaos is not considered to be derivable due to its unknown nature. It is considered that The Chaos holds the ability to transcosmise, or travel between cosmoses in The Universe. The Chaos is not itself a physical entity, but instead a collectivity off entities that are considered to hold chaotic natures.
