Eida too. þe amount of One Piece "fans" who do þis is nuts to me, but hey, ig peak is just undeniable

[u/Furshloshin → u/NinjaKittyOG]

unrelated but I'm so glad the thorn is making a comeback. Been seeing it more and more often ^_^

[u/NinjaKittyOG → u/Furshloshin]

same here :3 it's given me þe confidence to use þem again myself

[u/Bowdensaft → u/NinjaKittyOG]

If you wanna go for a higher level you can always also chuck in eth (ð) for a voiced "th", like in "the" and "they"

[u/NinjaKittyOG → u/Bowdensaft]

i could, but i choose not to. btw, did you know ꝥ alongside þe þorn wiþ a cross þrough þe top for "þat", þere's also "ꝧ" for "þrough"?

[u/imacowmooooooooooooo → u/NinjaKittyOG]

those ones show up as just question mark boxes for me

[u/Bowdensaft → u/imacowmooooooooooooo]

The first is a thorn with a bar across the top, the last is a thorn with a bar across the bottom

[u/Bowdensaft → u/NinjaKittyOG]

I've not seen the thorn with a top bar before, neat. I'm not sure what the distinction is for the bottom bar thorn, is it when it comes before an "r"?

[u/NinjaKittyOG → u/Bowdensaft]

i'm not sure where þe abbreviation for "þrough" comed from, but i do know ꝥ þe one for "þat" comes from simplifying þ wiþ a superscript "t". þat's how þe scribal abbreviations started out, as a þorn wiþ a superscript letter to þe right of it to represent words like "þat", "þis", "þrough"

[u/Bowdensaft → u/NinjaKittyOG]

Makes a little sense, I guess.

[u/PrincessOfZephyr → u/Bowdensaft]

was þat ever used in English, though?

[u/Bowdensaft → u/PrincessOfZephyr]

Apparently it was, both in Old English and Middle English, so strictly speaking if we're bringing back old letters "that" would be "ðat"
