English isn't exactly in a position to complain about this, you know?
Besides, doesn't it say something about a language that it expresses the notion of "much" or "many" with a word literally meaning "a fair cup"? Which is of cause lost in a strictly phonetic spelling.

Äccents åre græt. Äccents åre gôrjeous. We løves 'èm, my prëcious, yés we dó.

It's just there to tell you that you're meant to pronounce the vowels separately.
And yes, it's Eönwë.
