My problem with Anglish.
Anglish is cool in some ways, but it annoys me that it really only focuses on the words, not about the grammar, the phonology, and rarely about the orthography. If you're trying to undo the Norman Invasion, you have to account for all four aforementioned things, and evolve English from 1066 with regular sound changes that happened in languages like Frisian, Dutch, and Low German to make a true unfrench English.
I know that is really complicated, and that many people would have different solutions, and many different ways to evolve English, like would there still be the Great Vowel shift, would we assume it retained its complex case system? There are definitely other things that would have to be thought about, but I think just changing what words we use isn't enough; at least devise different grammar that Anglish should use for it to be more Germanic, or completely fix the orthography: base it off of the aforementioned languages, make it less Latin and French and Greek; maybe even base it off of older conservative Scots orthography.
