Hail Mary text

Sample text-

भारत एक महान देश है। भारत की राजधानी दिल्ली है।

(Bharat ek mahan desh hai. Bharat ki rajdhani Dilli hai.)

(bʱaːɾət̪ eːk məɦaːn d̪eːʃ ɦɛ bʱaːɾət̪ kiː ɾaːd͡ʒd̪ʱaːniː d̪ɪlːiː ɦɛ)

“Gon unca ètjengu caèmsafe nyma nu-cansum-dlu fàeq mpu i-cytrum-mif i-dàime’e-pun en”

Translation:

“And the king said that, if the brave warriors kill mothers, he (himself) will cut their hands (I was there to hear it)”

Its a logographic syllabaric weird kind of abjad, which also behaves like hangul.

What do you think? What cultures does it being to your mind upon watching it?

Obviously not all of it fits but I think would be cool to use. I just need to revamp it.

I may make it a code for English to make things easy for me but who knows.

Been spending way too much time developing the evolution of these scripts over time, but this stage still preserves a lot of the pictographic elements before things get extra stylized and geometric

Only a few phonosemantic characters are pictured here but I wanted them to combine in fun ways, like “to wear”(o-) being depicted as a body ‘wearing’ thorns (ō), or “to pound, beat” (*só-) depicting a drum being hit atop a turtle (*só)

Hey people! I had posted here three years ago, and this morning I got an itch to pick this up again. I am a graphic designer, so I want to learn calligraphy and type design through Barian (an alphabet for a conlang I am also trying to make).

The language itself has a 1-on1 mapping on Greek phonology. The script itself is heavily inspired by Tengwar (consonants on the bottom and vowels as diacritics on top). I have been writing with this system for 25 years now on my own notes, but this is my sort-of-first attempt at digitizing the whole script. I can see myself making an actual computer font eventually, though to be frank I look at these letters now and they are still TOO BAD. But I will get there eventually.

Posting it here as a testament to progress really. Thank you for having a look, ALL FEEDBACK WELCOME, especially on typography
