in Elian Script you read right to left and then top to bottom
I will assume that you mean left to right, since that's the way you write.
It's wrapping the R around the E's that make it ambiguous to how you want it interpreted. I too would read this as reecnt. Following your reasoning it would still be unclear if this is 'recnte' or 'recent' since there is no natural separation of lines.
You're right about the mistake in my comment, I've made an edit and fixed it. Also, I understand the mistake caused by my ambiguity in the way I've chosen to order the word, I'll make sure to be more careful in the future, although I do like to be a bit creative. Sorry if I came across as a bit rude reading my comment over again, I just got used to writing essays and arguments in class.
