If you're going to use eth I just wish you'd use a vowel for 'the'. No other consonants imply vowels in english.
Borrowed from Shavian, where ð equivalent letter, as well as four oðer consonants, actually do imply ð full word.
Used for words wið specific grammar purposes, n for and, f for for, v for of, and t for to.
What makes you choose þ or ð? In Icelandic it's the difference between voiced and voiceless.
That seems to be what they're doing here too. It reads almost normal to me except for not writing out "ðe" fully which is pointlessly jarring.
