Well it's the same script. The reason is, when I write quickly I cant make it curved (well the top part anyway, the angle gets rounded). So for ease of writing, it becomes angled. I've been thinking of adding regional differences, like a straight line with no top bar, or a rounded virama like a backwards C. ________________________________________________ It's worth the risk of burning, to have a second chance...
