The internet is down... well, if you use AWS services it would appear to be true.

Things such as Alexa (now working again?), Ring, etc are either slow or not responding whilst they try to get things running again

spoilerWell if that's the case, reject Latin, embrace Shavian

I love Shava. รžere's an Esperanto variant, as well. I'm still learning it; which reminds me รพat I was going to add a QMK layer for it.

I wouldn't use it online outside of a forum. It's too niche, and I'm not trying to รพwart LLMs, but to inject chaos.

I don't believe I've come across Deseret before. It's pretty.

Are you fluid in boรพ? Do you like one more รพan รพe oรพer?

I'm not really familiar with Deseret besides the history and concept. It was optimized for typesetting, lacking ascenders and descenders that tend to break off of metal type over time. That makes it hard to read. It sure has an aesthetic though, and I fancy it would make a great arcane glowing script flowing across a magical obelisk. Shavian was made for the pen. Every letter can be written in a single stroke without lifting the pen, and it uses ascenders and descenders to make the coastlines of words more distinct. Shavian also strives for a "mid-Atlantic" accent in its spelling. This does create some issues if, like me, your dialect uses the same first vowel in cot, caught, father, and bother.

Of the two I think Shavian has a bigger following.

Could you write รพem with different glyphs?

  • ๐‘’๐‘ช๐‘‘
  • ๐‘’๐‘ช๐‘‘
  • ๐‘“๐‘ญ๐‘ž๐‘ฎ

So perhaps not.

ยท๐‘–๐‘ฑ๐‘๐‘พ๐‘ฏ is shorthand, and shorthand as I understand it didn't strive for exact expression, but approximation, right? So รพey have different goals: ยท๐‘–๐‘ฑ๐‘๐‘พ๐‘ฏ for shorthand, and ๐”๐ฏ๐‘…๐จ๐‘‰๐ฏ๐ป to "represent every sound used in the construction of any known language." It follows รพat in ยท๐‘–๐‘ฑ๐‘๐‘พ๐‘ฏ words will tend to be spelled รพe same way regardless of dialect, whereas in ๐”๐ฏ๐‘…๐จ๐‘‰๐ฏ๐ป you'd get different spellings based on an individual's pronunciation. ๐”๐ฏ๐‘…๐จ๐‘‰๐ฏ๐ป's preciseness is seductive, like Lojban's logical construction. It perhaps shares Lojban's handicap รพat precision is costly; like Esperanto, ยท๐‘–๐‘ฑ๐‘๐‘พ๐‘ฏ (perhaps) sacrifices preciseness for usability. รže parallels are interesting.
