#its written on a line and CV syllables go above the linr and VC syllables go below the line

worked on my conlang a lot today :] lost track of time a little bit .. i got around to drawing the base of sll the glyphs so now i just need 2 make all the variants for them
#i already finished 1... so 17 more to go lol
#and by 17 i mean. 17*18. since there are 9 vowels + the up and down variations
#if snybody is curious its a syllabary. rather than an alphabet.. it does sort of work similarly to an alphabet tho so idk if it counts as a
#like. True syllabary
#but basically there are CV syllables and VC syllables
#its written on a line and CV syllables go above the linr and VC syllables go below the line
#and each consonant has like a base glyph and then there are 9 vowels. which are umm
#the way im representing the vowels is with 1-3 lines either perfectly horizontal tilted up or tilted down
#grouped together on the base consonant.
#that doesnt rly make sense i cn upload image 2 explain if anybody wants...
#i havent actually decided which glyph represents which sounds yet LMAO. im juet working on getting them done so i cn decide based on how
#they look ...and once i actually have them done then ill need t umm. go through and just write them a bunch
#to simplify them. since famously writing tends to get simplified over time ...
#ill have t rly work out the language first. ITS ALSO COMPLICATED BC. so rhe way language is in my pretend world
#is the like. well they srent rly human. but the people in the world couldnt talk before they were taught by the gods
#so all languages have a shared like..root language. obv it changes and brandhes out over time which gives me an exciting opportunity to do
#lots and lots of languages without having to come up with new roots ... this is rly fun TO ME.
#the thang with it tho is that idt they learned how to write immedistely after they learned speech.. i rhjnk that mightve come later
#so the syllabary im working on rn is rly just the likee. semi modern WRITTEN form of the original language .. not rly modern its still
#likee. ancient
#AAAA this reminds me i wanna make a calendar system....
#ill have t work on that as well. i wish i had that one expensive ass game that lrts u likee. fuck around with le solar system
#2 see the effect it has on yr planet... bc mine has 2 moons
#that r on opposite sides of the earth at all times
#they arent fr moons theyre the creation gods you see. but they appear as moons
#i also need to flesh out more of the gods.. bc it won't judt be the freation gods there will be a pantheon
#but im thinking abt it a lot bc likee. so the creation gods Are the moons you know. so for the other ones i cant decide if theyre moons of
#other planets or if they just Are the planets... OR if theyre just floating about out there yk. i suppose rly they could be whatever they
#want. yk.. and obviously they all have nultiple forms likeee. yk...
#also maybe the creation gods arent themselves the moons maybe they just live there Much 2 think about.
