Comment on ·𐑖𐑱𐑝𐑾𐑯: Come and learn the Shavian alphabet

I don’t see exactly what you’re referencing. But although it is a phonetic alphabet, my understanding is Shavian is not designed to be a fast writing system, unlike Gregg or other shorthands. I think the pitch is a spelling reform for English, which puts it in a different category.

The downvotes. Threadiverse hates anything not conforming to Imperial English.
I’ve also gotten banned on communities for demonstrating shavian and contractions as “spam.”

I am saying good luck in your community. ’Cause threadiverse aint kind to punks.

  It might be because people are using a front-end that can’t display the font properly.

    seriously, fonts have existed for decades. I won’t tolerate imperialism.
    
    Maybe I’ll /c/reate shorthands
