I know that Thai is written with no punctuation at all... indeed, with
no spaces at all between words. Most Asian scripts (from what I've
seen) make no use of punctuation, except in modern newspapers and
books where they use punctuation adopted from Western scripts for
added clarity.

<closely related> I sometimes wonder whether any human cultures use a
different semantic structure (i.e. different from the usual Western
comma/period/clause/sentence conventions), as I'm trying to make my
conlang
Rahha bend away from that a bit, but I can't stop thinking that way.
Thoughts?
