As both a teacher of critTcal readihg and asa tutor in the Reading Lab at BYU,I often work with students, who have problemswith English phonetics. RecenVy Jerry:--a bright student with a poor readingand vocabulary background--lOokeb atme Over the,top offa drilin spotting the silent e and complained: "Why'do they make Englishso hard? Why don't they have oneway.to do it that fits all thetime?" Jerry is not alone in her'frustrationover English orthography. George and Evelyn-Spache, two nbtedr'authoritieson reading skills, point out that "thereare a disturbing numbe.r of exceptions to almostany [phonetic] geheralizktiov [or rule] thaican be framed."1 In other words, the phonetic rules of English orthography do not apply inmany cases. Spache cites a study by Theodore Clymeras support for his statement. ' Clymer first studied commonly used.basal readei.s angworkbooks to deter- . mine what phonetic generalizations or rules theyteach. He ;round over 121 different phonetic generalizations.. He narrowed down theserules.to those that he considered the most reatonable and Useful. Next Clgner compared these rules with word lists from the texts. He suggests that thephonetic rule should apply in 75% of the C'aSes if it is to.be.considered a sound generalization. Of thirty-seven phonetic rujes, only nine were foundto be "sufficiently valid andwidely applicable."2 John Widstpe also criticizedtheunphonetic nature of English: "English spelling must be memori3N rather than'carned from thesounds of t'he words. Therefore, bad spelling isa very kmon fault among 2 English-sPeaking people.'"3 Indeedwthe're are a variety\of ellings for the sounds ih English as reference to a dictionary k will show. For examplythe American College Dictionary lists 44 sounds' ofthe English 1Vguage (see Appendix A). Only one sound the th soundas in thin has one spelling. '.However, the letter combination of t I1d h has two possible sounds:th as in thin and th as in then. A iew of the sounds have only two possible spellings such as the a sound. If can be spelled withan a as in hat or $ an ai as in plaid. However, the spelling ai also can be used to makethe. a sound as in rain and the a sound as in chair.Most Of the sounds in the English language have multiple spellings. According to American, -tne most possible spellings per sound.is 14. The sh sound has 14 possible spelling. combinations. In addition, sii English sounds--eas in ebb, -6 as in see, k as. in kill, o as in oh,u as in use, and a as in alone--have eleven Yr possible spellings. As one considers this list with its multiple spellin6 'combinations, one appreciates.the complaintsof students about English orthography. Written English is clearly not dominantly phonetic.- These irregularities alsocause havoc for students learning to read English. When confronted with the letters ai, shouldthe student read 5-, or T? Or when'confronted with the homophonehear should the reader' think of his ears or.his location? In the profession of teaching reading there is a lot of controversyover the role of English phonetics in learn- ing to read. A 1982 issue of U. S. News and WorldReport illustrates this debate with interviews froM Rudolf Fleikh and StanleySharp. Flesch supports the learning of Englishphonetics as a valuable approach to reading. In answer to the queition: "Isn't the widespread , 3 a, . 4 difficulty that many people have wfthspellimg proof ttiat Engfish is not phonetic?"k Flesch replied; ' No. Poor spelling is the result of toomany years ofe' improper reading instructionnot the faultof the language. Let's take the word "independence, for example. A phonics-trained student-will read it offthe page immediately, and.so will a 106k-and-say-trainedstudent--if he has seen it many times. Now, suppose tpey come across the word "interdependence." Phonics-triained students w114 read it , and understand what it-means, but look-and-saystudents--90 ,percent of the time--will read itas "independence." 'They . will never see the "ter," becausefor yeaes and years they have had drummed into their minUs toguests a word by its general shape and appearance. You see, look-and-say doesn't ,teach reading or spelling; it teaches guessing. He concludes: "It is an unforgetable moment,whena Child first discovers the key to the secret code of reading." Sharp'disagrees withFlesch. In answer to the question: "Can't a phohics-based reading curriculum compensatefor illogical spelling?", , Sharp answered; 4 ND, and that is a principalreason why phonics reading classes are so tedious for-many children. Basal readers--the textbooks used in. the eafly grades--areobliged to use as many words as possible thatare spelled regularly or phonetically. The result is that most of the readingmatter is horribly boring or inane to many pupils. Some educators are convinced that children resist getting involved inreading because the early texts are so insipid. He concludes: "Eventually, children should be taught ietter-sound relationihips thatare reliable, but theydeould also be madeaware from the beginning that most words don'tconform to the r'Ules of phonics."4 -Attempts at Englich Orthographic Reforms Mahy'scholars have recognized thesediscrepancies and have attempted . to reform English orthography. Reformation have ranged from minor modi- fications in the present'romanic system tOthe use of completely new characters. * 7 4 \ Early in the United States, therewere several attempts at reforma- , . ..7 tion. Benjamin Franklin noted the existence ofmore soUnds in the 4, English language than letters in the romplic alphabet,so he des ned six new symbols.

Zeh, Ph.D., Dean, Graduate School December 2019 i Abstract B. H. Roberts presented information to the leadership of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in January of 1922 that fundamentally challenged the entire premise of their religious beliefs. New research shows that in addition to church leadership, this information was also presented during the neXt few months to a select group of highly educated Mormon men and women outside of church hierarchy. This group represented many aspects of Mormon belief, different areas of eXpertise, and varying approaches to dealing with challenging information. Their stories create a beautiful tapestry of Mormon life in the transition years from polygamy, frontier life, and resistance to statehood, assimilation, and respectability. A study of the people involved illuminates an important, overlooked, underappreciated, and eXciting period of Mormon history.

    12 “To Every Nation, Kindred, Tongue, and People” Po Nien (Felipe) Chou and Petra Chou Po Nien (Felipe) Chou is a religious educator and manager of the Offi ce of Research for the Seminaries and Institutes (S&I) of Th e Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Petra Chou is a homemaker and teaches in the Chinese Immersion program for the Alpine School District. he Book of Mormon was fi rst translated into the English language by Tthe Prophet Joseph Smith in 1829. Th e goal is now to make it avail- able “to every nation, kindred, tongue, and people” (Mosiah 15:28). Th is chapter explores the eff orts of Th e Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to bring forth the Book of Mormon in other languages and to make it accessible to all the world. Although it will not provide an exhaustive review of all 110 translations (87 full book and 23 selections)1 distributed by the Church by spring 2015, it will examine a number of translations, versions, and editions, along with the eff orts to bring forth this sacred volume to “all nations, kindreds, tongues and people” (D&C 42:58). Ancient prophets declared that in the latter days the Lord would “com- mence his work among all nations, kindreds, tongues, and people, to bring about the restoration of his people upon the earth” (2 Nephi 30:8). Th e Book of Mormon was to “be kept and preserved” so that the knowledge of the Savior and his gospel would go forth and be taught unto “every nation, kindred, tongue, and people” in preparation for the Second Coming of the 228 Po Nien (Felipe) Chou and Petra Chou Lord (see 1 Nephi 13:40; Mosiah 3:20; Alma 37:4; D&C 42:48; D&C 133:37).

Eyes are drawn across the brook-carved val- ley toward the Holy Mount where the temple stood in antiquity. Reflecting upon sacred events that unfolded in the Holy City is the natural result of standing on the Mount of Olives, particularly certain events in the life of Jesus and the ministries of Melchizedek, Abraham, Isaac, Isaiah, Lehi, Jeremiah, Peter, and Paul.
