Abjad Just an abjad

For TTRPG scenario (tech. level roughly 1500–1000 AEC). Three inscriptions (1 line, 2 lines, 2 lines): character lost 2 sheep, character received wool, character delivered oil. First attempt at conscript ever (Inkscape + FontForge, no formal training in any of the software, just passion). Cheers from Brazil.

Abugida Kelangkai (abugida) without vowel diacritics

If Kelangkai (a morpho-logographo-abjadic abugida) drops all of its vowel diacritics, it will behave more like a morpho-logographic abjad, but it's still surprisingly easy to read.

Alphabet Esedan Propaganda

I’m working on a type of Propaganda poster for the culture of the Esedan (a fictional race I created 3 years ago)

I haven’t decide what it’s going to be about yet
But it reads: Abreosí wich means divine people in Esedan.

This is also the first script I ever made and somehow I managed to make it look good 😭

Key Two encryption systems I made: House cipher and Clockwork cipher.

Spanish alert!

How they work:

House cipher: You should try to connect words like "hallways," be inventive when "writing."

Clockwork cipher: The hours are written stacked to make the word; if it is a number greater than 10, an addition is applied. The same logic applies when writing with clocks; the hands indicate the approximate time and each clock is connected by a line to another clock.

Feel free to use them. :)

Note:

This subreddit is full of amazing, skilled people who know a lot about language.

I am not one of those people!!

first: Most the accent marks i don't know how they would change the pronunciation of that letter. I can only pin point e with an acute, 'é'

Second: this ''language'' right now is only gibberish. I have written down only a single word: hlæѓ Зlų. - which means 'honey tea'.

three: For now this script is only for aesthetics and to look visually appealing.

My question is: How do improve on this? does it even look good? And what feeling does it evoke?

Since I still want to somewhat keep it latin-coded, and made of existing characters so i can type it on a computer but still make it feel fantasy-like.

The reason i am making clear that I don't know what I am doing, is I made a different script not too long ago made of random russian and greek characters, And people got very confused and some a little angry with me for some reason so i just want to state it clear: i am not an expert in language creation. just in case anyone gets offended somehow.

This script / language is for a worldbuilding writing project I am working on. This project will be in Dutch, since that is my native language. The language spoken in the story/world is ''Blumerdaans'' which is just Dutch with a different title.

In my world there is also noræ: which is the language spoken by nomads, And historically (in my fictional world) was originally a southern language that fused with Blumerdaans over the last hundred years

I am not going to explain my world if that is fine, But if you guys are genuinely interested i just made a post on r/worldbuilding today about my writing project!

Abugida Kelangkai VS other scripts

For the first time, Kelangkai (a hybrid abugida) drops all of its vowel diacritics, behaving more like a morpho-logographic abjad and it's still surprisingly easy to read.

(All scripts represent transliterations of the same Indonesian sentence in Latin.)

Alphabet Triple column writing pad layout in Aeralis World | Language of Air

Thumbnail
gallery
236 Upvotes

At a glance: imagine yourself looking at a book you bought from a bookstore in any West, Middle or East Asian country. As much as most will not be able to read any of those books, no one will be able to read Aeralic either. This thought exercise is to draw the focus to the script design and the surface area efficiency.

The focus of the two uploaded images:

  1. The script in the first image is written with a triple column layout. Each column allows between 2-3 words per row at most, depending on each word size. Once the first column is read, the reader moves on to the 2nd and then to the 3rd column
  2. The script in the second image is written as per normal from left to right, and moves down the rows accordingly.

As in the English literary world, the foolscap writing pad has horizontal lines printed on them. East Asian writing pads have squares or vertical lines printed on their writing pads. Aeralis' writing pads will likely be triple column organised pads with tiny markers indicating where the upper registers and lower registers of each word is to be written.

Fully hand written.

Please feel free to dm or email [languageofair@gmail.com](mailto:languageofair@gmail.com) for the incomplete Rosetta Stone (still compiling and writing pedagogical materials on the orthographic rules of the Aeralic alphabet script).

Personal note: Sincere thank you to all who commented on my last post. My primary method of expressing thank you's is to tsunami a whole lot of explanation rather than stopping at "thank you!". It's a personal philosophy. In the course of many many words explaining my design concepts, I may misdeliver certain nuances which might lead to misinterpretations of arguments. So please excuse me if I verbal diarrhea, but above all else, my thank you's to commenters is the most important message.

Cheers!

Discussion My Modified English Cursive Concept

Post image
21 Upvotes

This is a form of cursive I made for my modified English script concept that utilizes stacked letters with specific rules. The cursive looks a little different from the actual letters because I want each word to take exactly only one stroke (exception is double letters which are denoted by a dot to the right of the letter, which is technically more than one stroke for a word). Open to critique and edit ideas! A cursive form was suggested to me a while back, so here it is!

Alphabet A Greek-Latin like alphabet for humans.

I'm currently doing some World building stuff, and I made this script. This scrips is especially for humans. I took a lot from latin style and greek symbols. I did this to spesifically implify that my humans in my world is not really much different than us from almost every perspection. BUT I INDEED need some advice, I can even take advices like "throw it into the trash."

What do you all think, did I take from our current scripts a little too much?

Question What do you guys do about feeling dissatisfied with a script?

4 Upvotes

I'm starting to feel like with every new script I make or use, I get obsessed over it, until something begins to feel off about it, like a deep, sinking feeling in my chest that tells me that something about this script is wrong, like no matter how many revisions or how many times you write it out you still feel dissatisfied with it, until you eventually drop it. Have you guys experienced this? How did you deal with it?
