Re: NuShu

For an example of a "woman's language" we have "Nushu"
of the Jiangyong area of Hunan province. Most attention has
been to its writing system, but there are other features as
well. Most was in poetic format, for example. It was
apparently in use exclusively by women for over three
hundred years.  Seems built from Chinese, but may have
some Yao features.

Wow...

This is definitely of interest. I adore the writing system's aesthetic
quality and it is fascinating to find that such a minority language has
existed among communities for over 300 years...
