I do this in my handwritten Lojban.

Of course, my handwritten Lojban is quite a sight. I can't stop myself, when
using the Roman alphabet, from using all the conventions that go with it, so
I have decided to use another one; I write in Cyrillic. I also use rather
unwieldy cmavo compounds, and my apostrophe has migrated downwards to be
more like a dot between the vowels. I also have shorthand symbols for the
dipthongs ai and au.
