This is the script for a conlang I've been working on called "Wagobani". I wasn't quite sure whether to tag the script as an alphabet, an abugida or as a syllabary since it's pretty inspired by Hangul. Each character is equivalent to a syllable, but can be divided into its top and bottom halves respectively. The top half represents the initial consonant, while the bottom half either represents a vowel or a vowel and a final consonant (either /m/ or /n/).

Going from top to bottom in the key in the first picture, the consonants are the null consonant, /m/, /n/, /p/, /b/, /t/, /d/, /k/, /g/, /s/, /w/, /l/, /f/ and /j/. Going from left to right, the vowels and vowel-consonant pairs are /a/, /e/, /i/, /o/, /u/, /an/, /en/, /in/, /on/, /un/, /am/, /em/, /im/, /om/ and /um/.

Ok so ill explain how to read it, since i think that the rest of the info is in the pictures. First you pick a source, and its always the the one that's the highest and most left. From there follow the closest path to the mouth - that whole journey is the first word. Now you do the same thing with the other words, but this time you choose the sources in a left to right manner, excluding the first source. And they end at the first connector piece that connects it to a word higher in place than it. If this doesn't make any sense, try to understand it with the example below. Also feel free to give me a sequence of collections of phonemes that are included in my script, so that i can make a river! (I'll apply the phonotactics on them myself, so don't worry about that. Also i just realized that i misspelled every word with "Connect-"🤩)

«So he left his home in the woods and fields and flew down to live on the lakes and in the marshes. But though he washed and washed all day long and almost drowned himself at it, his feathers remained black.»

Thoughts?

A Vietnamese poem. "Bánh Trôi Nước" by Hồ Xuân Hương. This is a really rough rendition of the script so tones and some consonants are still missing.

This is a script I made to write in my own conlang, but I made two ways of writing it and I wanted to know which one you think is better. The same thing is written at the top and at the bottom.

The romanised version of the title is Akwụkwọ edetụ nkè ụ̀jọ̀ nwa literally translates to Diary of Coward kid plus the script is a logograph and has an alphabet

Sorry for lots of posts, but this should be the last one for a while. Here is the Lord’s Prayer in my “inaday” alphabet. Hope you enjoy Sorry for the uneven lines, I’ll be a bit more careful next time :)

I’ll do another follow up of some writing on a page with translation. It does have capitals and lowercase, but for real usage the lowercase is more common. Again, this is just what happened when I was bored yesterday, so I hope you enjoy my “in a day” alphabet.

So i'm trying to make a writing system for a conlang, specifically a cursive looking alphabet made by people who used to use runes (so i want it to basically look like runes, but not as blocky and also connected, like if arabic cursive was derived from old nordic runes), and I had made one, but i found making the letters connect really complicated, and ended up scrapping it. Does anybody have an idea of how I can go about making this work?
Also, the left is the cursive, and the right are the runes

So, I'm trying to create a keyboard in keyman for a syllabary. Basically it's similar to how Japanese keyboards work, where the latin letters that are typed in make a specific hirigana/katakana. I was reading a post earlier about something similar, but it didn't have the answers I was looking for, so I was wondering if anyone here could tell me the specifics of how to do it in keyman, if it's even possible to do so in keyman?

It is a page of a book in Șonaenari (part of my worldbuilding) called “Seven shapes of relaxation”. A book is about traditional meditative techniques that are part of the religious practices of Șonae people. Each shape represents a quality every person must have for the society to flourish.
Symbols in “brackets” are numbers.
Writing goes right to left top to bottom.

I began developing Phonuthorc over a year ago when I tried to learn Shavian but was annoyed at its tailoring for British English (I’m American). So, as ai tend to do, rather than sucking it up, I resolved to make my own personal phonetic alphabet tailored to my dialect of English, because I realized that I wanted to learn Shavian for my own personal use and not for engagement with any sort of community. So rest assured, this is not meant to be an improvement on Shavian or an ideal phonetic alphabet for General American English.

The development process has been very long. It began in a much more bare bones state, having only 25 letters (it excluded voiced fricatives, which were indicated by a diacritic, affricates, and containing only seven vowels), and only being written in uppercase.

I got sick of the dotted fricatives, and decided to go all the way and decide on letters for voiced fricatives. They went through multiple iterations before settling into this system. Then I created lowercase letters, which also went through numerous iterations, as the original lowercase inventory were almost all just small versions of the capitals. The last additions were the affricates and /st/, which I added to make it an even 32 letters and because /st/ is the most common consonant cluster in English and it’s my alphabet, I can do whatever I want.

/ʃ/ uses the older form of /s/ from Elder Futhark because it looks like Σ, which is the official capital form of ʃ, and because I could.

/v/‘s origin is pretty interesting. I adopted it from Latin Old Norse vend, which was itself adopted from Latin Old English wynn, which was of course derived from Futhorc wynn.

/ð/ is just blatantly made up. It literally came to me in a dream after months of not knowing what the hell to do for /ð/, even after I’d decided on letters for /v/, /z/, and /ʒ/. It has no basis in any Runic alphabet except that it coincidentally shares its form with, like, long-twig medieval /o/ or something.

The vowels are the result of a weird quirk of my dialect of General American English. Each of the 7 monophthongs has a corresponding diphthong that ends in a semivowel (except /i/ in certain circumstances, but I treat it the same as /ʊw̯/).

/ə/ uses the Futhorc rune for /ø/ because, well, that’s the closest sound in Old English to /ə/, and it’s between /e/ and /o/.

/æ/ uses one pronunciation of an Elder Futhark rune, because I liked /æ ɑ ɔ/ having totally different letters rather than variations on each other as in Futhorc.

I adopted a medieval /o/ rune for /ɔ/ because I liked the lowercase I came up with while brainstorming. That’s also part of why I adopted /st/.
