- Well, Rokbeigalmki's pictogram/morphemograph writing system records everything that the alphabetic system does (with a few ambiguities). Since Rokbeigalmki is agglutinative and not inflective, that probably makes it simpler. If i remember correctly, Japanese uses Chinese symbols for roots and native syllablics for affixes. -Stephen (Steg) "My feet hurt... ....WITH DESTINY!" ~ _Sluggy Freelance_
