Re: OT: Punctuation

When writing Kelen in Latin script, i simply use a semicolon to mark
the end of sentences. In Kelen script (which will be going up on a
web page RSN) I use something that looks an awful lot like a colon to
mark the end of sentences, and in some cases a floating period to
mark the spaces between words. No commas, no quote marks. Very simple.
