I don't have a sample of my script yet (I have yet to
actually come up with a character set *frowns*) but I
do have a sample of Hangul that kind of helps show my
point:

].
In my language, it would look more like this:

] (Note: the second sample is still in Hangul. It is a
hypothetical example.)
Anyway, I hope this helps.

P.S. In answer to the question "Why Japanese and
Korean?", there are 2 reasons:
1) the culture I'm making the language for resembles a
medieval version of Japanese and Korean cultures, and
2) Japanese and Korean are the only languages outside
of English that I am really familiar with. *grins and
chuckles dopishly*
