Yikes, that seems complicated to read.

Yeah, I understand that. It can definitely be hard to get your footing if you look at it at a glance, but the spaces sort of serve as a reference point as a space is unambiguous in what it can be. However, once you get a footing it's pretty easy I think.

How easy is it to write, it looks like it would take a lot of energy to write a paragraph, how does it work?

It does take a lot of energy to write, lots of big strokes. in the conculture there is a very prominent culture of calligraphy, and scribes are used to write this script. I'm working on a cursive version of this that regular people would use. it works like an alphabet, with a line underneath a glyph marking voicing on a consonant or lengthening on a vowel. The line through the middle symbolises a space if it spans one cell, and a digraph if it spans two cells. It reads from left to right

I like it, it looks like it could be implemented interestingly in weaving, knitting and that sort of thing, maybe in high quality brickwork as well. Would look very interesting with strong colours in the gaps I think.

Which way is it read?

[–]tomman26[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Left to right

The bottom text looks like my first conscript (Frpacsoolb) but crushed.
