Neoglish (Extended & Updated English Alphabet) Translator

what if we had 34 lettəs...

so i saw þis video titled "I updated the alphabet. What do you think?" həe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyGtuBCXlwU and me, always haviŋ loved expəimentiŋ wiþ laŋuage, conlaŋs and writiŋ systems þought to myself "you know what? yes." and so həe we are!
Θ / ϑ — IPA’s Theta for “th” (old eŋliʂ’s Thorn “Þ / þ” & Eth “ð” was also considered but the Thorn looked too much like a b or p in my experiments tryiŋ to read it and because it comes up so often I find it to be important to чaŋe. I’ve also picked up a habit of just writiŋ “ϑ” alone to represent ϑe word “the” when I write my diary. It’s just fastə and makes sense, but ϑe lʊks like a cute little ribbon whiч I like tʊ!)
ʃ / ʂ — IPA’s “sh” (I iñtially wanted to use ϑe turkiʂ S-cedilla “ş” but it’s just easiə to write when it’s at ϑe end, and i ϑink ʃ lʊks like a soup scʊp whiч i like, but you can just use “Ş” tʊ!)
Ч / ч — ϑe cyrillic Che “ch” & “tch” which is used in 52 languages! (“ç” wʊd work tʊ but i ϑink ϑe Che is just cʊlə)
⋊ / ʞ — just some əndəappreciated unicodes for “qu” & “kw” (ϑis way Q can be almost completely removed from the alphabet)
ẞ / ß — Gəman eszett “ss” (my friend Чui Чui always uses ϑis lettə to say “yaßßß” because it’s somehow gayə.)
Ŋ / ŋ — IPA’s Engma “ng”
Ñ / ñ — spañʂ eñe “ni” or “ny” in words like “ñew” and “oñion” (ϑis is ϑe hardest to implement in ϑe translator i made because “ni” isn’t always pronoəced like an eñe. I cʊld ignore it since ϑe spelliŋ of words in modən eŋliʂ is already a meß anyway and all I want to do is make an improvement for myself but it might be easiə to just get rid of ϑis one…)
Ə / ə — infamous IPA Schwa to replace “er” (sometimes maybe not always) “un” (occasionally) “ai” (ummm uhh rarely) & “io” (but only in words ending with “tion” or “sion” and not words like “bio.” Θe sчwa is really evəywhəe and is accent and context dependent, but i ϑink ϑese applicatəns are enough)
ʊ — IPA’s “oo” or “oul” like in “could” (except as a suffix like in “foul”)
read more aboutit in my medium article "Introduciŋ Neogliʂ — revolutəñziŋ ϑe Eŋliʂ alphabet for ϑe digital age." here https://ryaen.medium.com/introduci%C5%8B-neogli%CA%82-revolut%C9%99%C3%B1zi%C5%8B-%CF%91e-e%C5%8Bli%CA%82-alphabet-for-%CF%91e-digital-age-e680b11d0d97
I also want to add little 漢字 radicals to words cuz i like them but I would have to manually go through it word by word unless I find an easier way
