I am impressed by the intense practical use of the scripts. Only one of my
languages (Jases Lalal) has a really good script, and at present I am too rusty
to write it without
the alphabet before me. I did, about 37 years ago, create a very clumsy
alphabet
which I internalized enough that I still use it for private notes (e.g.
diary) , but it is not
directly linked to any of my conlangs.
