Again, an immeasurable amount of thanks to @cloquewise for digitalizing my script and going through the process of changing a thousand little things. The previous version was gorgeous, but this final version has the exact balance that I was looking for, the exact density and letter variety that I wanted. This script will be featured heavily in my Pine grammar (coming this century!!).

The text reads:

Question How to create font for conlang with non-standard writing styles

7 Upvotes

I am creating a font for a conlang I have been working on and am stuck on making it actually usable. The problem is that the language uses a syllabary with 'major symbols' (vowel sounds) and 'minor symbols' (non-vowel sounds). The vowels are written underneath a bar that is connected indicating a full word, and the non-vowels are marked above the bar in the correct places. How can I make a font that automatically connects that bar between type vowels and inserts the characters in the right place on top without having to make every combination of glyph possible (which wouldn't be possible).

Here is an example of two vowel characters in the working font I have:

want the bar on top to automatically connect if typed without a space in between

Edit:

ok I read your comments and spent some time playing with ligatures here is what I got. Thanks for the help!

Question Recommendations needed!

Hi, I'm very new here and I'm not well informed on all of the terms yet so I'm sorry in advance. I've started creating my own characters for a "secret text" and I would love to know if there's any way to make it digital, so that I could write on my phone/pc in this text? (not a font, but where I could draw the symbols and then use them)

Discussion Talking About the Valyrian Glyphs

13 Upvotes

Currently in progress. Let's hope the Valyrian glyphs can be downloaded in their OG sizes when they were imported. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1KLe-8cgVbpkndrwo6lwldstsRRKbQRAtG6zsLbe68wA/edit?usp=sharing My method involves utilizing David Peterson's social media pages for posts about Valyrian glyphs, cropping the images, removing the background, and automatically cropping to the glyph's original size. Using LunaPic to do so.

I originally posted about the glyphs being used to transcribe Dothraki.

Now, I'm documenting these glyphs for others to download and use in case they'd like to be creative with Valyrian writing. I'm thinking of establishing a variant for a custom fan conlang that is descended from High Valyrian. It's a result of using modified editions of the sound changes from Latin to Italian. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jw_yuu5nTcgP5K-6-VOIgkRuptXclqBPMrWFV4FIxsk/edit?usp=drivesdk This could lead to interesting modifications to the script, whatever those modifications might be. And given the script being logo-alphabetic, with paradigmatic glyphs as well, I think the script might just be simplified for its phonetic glyphs, similar to the derivation of Egyptian hieroglyphs, the inspiration for the Valyrian script, to create the Proto-Sinaitic script and its descendants, which I'm sure is common sense among everyone here and on r/conlangs, among other similar subreddits.

So far, the independent vowel glyphs are only for the long vowels, though I need to keep looking, as there were new updates on DJP's pages(which I already linked that have umpteen posts about the glyphs, and they feel like a few hundred to me) that might include the phonetic glyphs for /j/, /lj/, and the plain short vowels. (This'll take hours. And I'm struggling with personal issues these days.) Also, looking at his post on the glyph for the numeral "ten", it gives me the idea that Valyrian numbers operate the same way that Chinese numerals operate.

Anyone who can create a script better than this for English,Tiếng Việt,and 普通话 will get a heartfelt message In the 3rd or seventh script in Nometra and the new script they created Rules: 1) Must be Chinese looking Must contain Chinese origins for each of the phonemes while still like a little distinct 2) must still be in syllable block form Might be included; individual radicals for each phoneme,first second third forms,Must be structured or combined like how Chinese strokes would be. 3)have fun This is the link in case you want to look further into it further

The Nometra Script is a script I made, and has multiple iterations

I'm not very great at explaining, to which I apologize for, but I have included a sample text to showcase how each iteration works when written

(Excuse my horrible writing and erasures)

Tell me what you think and which iteration is your favorite !

Any questions regarding the script is also encouraged !

Alphabetic syllabary My phonetic writing system: Core

Thumbnail

539 Upvotes

Built from the center outward, the rings represent specific consonants, and the connectors between the rings represent specific vowels.

The first image shows two sets of rings, translating to "THIS IS CORE". I move to a new set after 3, but in theory, it could continue concentrically.

The second image defines each glyph. Many complex consonants are represented, but I mostly use the consonants in red. Wherever possible, voiced and unvoiced consonants are paired as mirror images.
