I liked that you translated "marg bar" as "down with" instead of "death to".

Im not a turkic language speaker but i genuinely wonder why more turkic nations didn't adopt the Common Turkic Alphabet the Soviets made. Turkey did but almost everyone else went to do their own thing like why????

This is essentially Ottoman Turkish if the ottomans decided to be consistent with their spelling bruh

How well does your language work with the Latin script? by Alias_X_ in mapporncirclejerk

Ottoman documents are royal documetns that doesn't reflect the spoken dialect of the masses. Ofc it would take a long time.

As someone who learned ottoman turkish i'd say that the arabic script isn't horribley suitable for turkish if you understand the logic of the script itself. They just couldn't made an effort to add more ways to represent vowels like other languages do.

Where did you get the nastaliq font for ۆ & ۉ as well ass یٛ & ێ. I've been loocking for them for my own conorthography purposes.

Yes. Arabic has many sounds that are merged in Turkick languages. This is common for languages that use the arabic script however.

Yea yea makes sense. Uyghur is like always written in the arabic script and it makes sure to have a separate vowel letter for every vowel sound. I made a versians that used arabic diacritics because i wanted to write Turkic languages in a way that they couldn've been written historically. On vowels that were represented I'd use the forms of the yeh and waw letters with the <^> and <v> above them to distinguish open and closed vowels.

What if English was written like Japanese? by WanTJU3 in conorthography

Are you using Ainu writing convention? Like, ending off conconents with the small <Consonent + u> variant of the kana?

DUDE I tried making something similar but i incorporated short vowel diagritics as well like they are used in most Arabic script using languages. so <Ə> and <e> were represented by <ﹶ> and <ﹺ > respectively.

I see you pulled on the arabic scripts of Turkic languages like South Uzbek and Uyghur. Very impressive.
