The Expressive English Alphabet is a alternative way to write English devised by Marcel Burrows. It is designed to have one letter for each sound. The alphabet has been designed to allow people from any part of the world to write in their own accent.
The only fonts that Marcel has found to work for this alphabet are Segue UI and Calibri

I had called upon my friend Sherlock Holmes upon the second morning after Christmas, with the intention of wishing him the compliments of the season. He was lounging upon the sofa in a purple dressing gown, a piprack within his reach upon the right, and a pile of crumbled morning papers, evidently newly studied, near at hand.
(from The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle)
