Summary | "Traité touchant le commun usage de l'escriture françoise" by Loys Meigret is a linguistic treatise written in the 16th century. This work discusses the rules and common practices associated with writing in the French language, focusing on the errors and confusions that arise from inconsistencies between spelling and pronunciation. It is likely of interest to those engaged in the study and appreciation of the French language and its evolution. The opening of the treatise introduces the author's critical examination of the French writing system, arguing that it is fraught with faults due to a disconnection from phonetic pronunciation. Meigret outlines the various ways in which the writing is corrupt—through the superfluity or omission of letters, and the misuse of certain characters that obscure meaning and lead to misreading. He emphasizes the need for a reformed writing system that mirrors the pronunciation more accurately, asserting that the confusion in writing renders it almost useless for clear communication and understanding.
