Quoting from: http://www.evertype.com/standards/csur/ewellic.html "Since spelling is based on pronunciation, words such as tomato and aunt that have alternative pronunciations will have more than one possible spelling." This doesn't sound like the author of Ewellic expects that users will spell everything alike. Ewellic is a script, but Exellic might only be a typo. Best regards, James Kass .
