Only a few Kash characters can be confused.  I , U  are mirror images; so
are K and P; E and O are inverts of each other.  H [x] and F differ only in
the direction of their beginning little circle.  Y and W (non-phonemic,
written only in u__V) are easily misread; they are basically an upright with
modified I, U attached. (W looks a little like 13, reverse the direction of
the 3 and you have Y). So you might have some fun mis-reading words, e.g.
_suwa_ (so far undefined) for _suya_ 'sister'?
 Consonants are not invertible (though they look interesting!), most of them
are open at the top and have a base line
