Types of orthographies for minlangs
Post Body
The last thread spawned a discussion about shape recognition and how different types of orthographies affected that and the usability of a writing system. Let's try and expand on that here.
What do you think of the types of writing systems as they might be used for a minlang? These include (and maybe also be phonetically featural or combined):
- Ideographies (each ideograph encodes a morpheme)
- Syllabaries (syllable)
- Abugidas (CV, consonant and vowel)
- Abjads (C)
- Alphabets (C or V)
You can of course use other or more granular terms.
