I would love to read "The Awful English Language" written in an alternative universe where Twain is German.

  I'd expect a lot of moaning about how something is written and how it is spelled to appear to come from two different planets.

  slightly offtopic: I would be delighted if Tucholsky had written something hilarious along those lines. But he didn't as far as I know, he focused more on the German language himself. https://www.eventpeople.de/aktuelles/eventmarket/ratschlaege.pdf https://www.eventpeople.de/aktuelles/eventmarket/ratschlaege...
