@naiya-dyani Awesome! Those details will probably take a bit to work out. With mine, there is no punctuation. And I’m not sure what my word structure will look like. I think I’m basing it more on the older Latin that was originally used. Old carvings of Latin words there is no punctuation or spaces or lowercase letters. Just a dot in between sentences. I have a rune for a space between words but it’s just going to be one long string of runes. And they’re going to be arranged vertically and be read from bottom to top. And it will be impossible for the living to read unless the dead want them to read it. So basically it literally cannot be learned by anyone living.
I’m not familiar with Japanese or French, so I would have no idea! That’s really cool, though!
Yeah, I actually didn’t plan that. Latin is just the language I’m most familiar with (after English, obviously) so that’s why I chose it. But yeah, using a dead language as a guide for a language of the dead fits!
