Inhglærantow (IGRT) is an alternative way to write English invented by Robbie J N in 2023 for a new spelling system for English that he created in 2016. The name Inhglærantow is pronounced [ɪŋglərantoʊ] and is a combination of English and Esperanto.
The letters are made up of horizontal, vertical and diagonal lines, allowing for usage in 16-segment displays. The vowels and vowel-extenders are formed into variations of X and Y shapes using 3 or 4 prongs. The remaining letters are formed from either a square or triangle plus 1 or 2 prongs. The secondary versions of H and R are used only for digraphs so the spelling system should not be confusing.

All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.
