<blush> Thanks. :)
I send reverend thanks once again to the people who adopted a Roman alphabet for our language. ;):-) Well, we might go back to runic now that they are in UTF ...
I used to be fluent in runic (my LOTR heyday). ;) Wrote letters to my boyfriend in it. (We're talking 30 years ago, when cave paintings had just given way to runic, and the only feedback you got from a computer was when it spat a punchcard at you.)
Hmm, Vietnamese in runic... It really handles combined tones now? It's an intriguing thought. :D
Our original script is Chữ Nôm [1], a Chinese-based script which never had a high literacy rate. It's still valued for historical reasons, though, and it looks great!
