Given that English is a hybrid language anyway and historically has demonstrated a willingness to accept loaner words from any source, a solution could be to adopt the 160 symbol IPA. According to Wikipedia, seems like everyday English could get by with around 20 vowel and 24 consonant symbols. Regional variation spellings, for example battery: bat-er-ree (US) v. bat-tree (UK), could be learned as synonyms. But how would you handle homophones? EG Japanese, which is loaded with homophones, had that problem way back when they tried to convert from Chinese hanzi logograms to an exclusively phonetic kana writing system. They wound [homograph] up mixing the two with Chinese ideograms setting the intended theme followed by phonetic kana to particularize pronunciation and grammar.
