Re: [lojban] Re: I wanted to share this with you (writing thingy!).
Just to say that if lojban will ever have its own writing system, I'll
vote for this.
I think it reflects perfectly the lojbanic duality between formality
and metaphoric thinking.
To me, the grid system is the counterpart of the formal grammar and
the flexibility in writing the single letters (prolongating the one
that fits best) is the counterpart of the metaphoric thinking induced
by tanru (and by zo'e and by the other hundreds of ways we can use to
make lojban a human language).
I guess we would need more people trying to use it to find if there's
anything that is hard to use or potentially unclear and so on.
Too bad we'll never really use it, but I think it's worth of being
fully documented and it would be extremely good if someone would
produce beautiful texts in it.
