CRESS is an advanced way of writing and reading.
You can read it even if you know only standard spelling.
Here’s a sentence you can make out without learning anything about CRESS:
- Nau iz da taim for al gud men and wiman tu kam tu da ed av der kantri
Now is the time for all good men and women to come to the aid of their country.
This is the advanced, shorter form of CRESS with the phonetic cue symbol left out. (^<>) It has about 15% fewer letters to read or write or type or print. Well accustomed CRESS promises faster reading. It even saves printing costs.
The longer more detailed begiinner teaching form includes phonetic clue symbols and teaches tongue position/pronunciation for phonemic awareness. The pure scientific phonetic principle: one symbol per sound.
- Nau iz z<a^ taim for al gud men a<nd wima^n tu^ ka^m tu^ z<a ^e^d a^v d<er ka^ntri^
CRESQ is the shorter fast abbreviated form for every day use once phonetics are understood and reading is learned. Just drop the arrows… it’s perfectly readable, even if you don’t know CRESS. Faster typing and faster reading than traditional spelling.
When you think about economy, think about CRESS too.
