how Ndemwa takes into account Gĩkũyũ's grammar, phonotactics, and vocabulary in casual writing.

img 1: this is not a comprehensive list of Gĩkũyũ phonemes, just a decent sample to show the vowel conformity and patterns, as well as how even exceptions are well accounted for.

img 2: not much to say, all is explained in the image. if an example of gĩcandĩ imagery is requested i have no problem providing

img 4: the height of tje syllables conveniently fits gĩkũyũ tonal structure. since the noun class markers are all toneless, that leaves only the two-line height characrers open to tonal indication

Brief Showcase of Kwaju Script

As soon as I saw this sub-reddit here, I knew I had to get my stuff on here.

This is Kwaju Script, derived from "Kwa Watu Wa Jua," or "For the People of the Sun" in Swahili. The script is a hybrid abugida for Swahili that's heavily inspired by Meroitic Cursive and Ge'ez scripts. This project Is my attempt to inspire people to use, or to make African scripts to be used and shared for their native languages by making it fun and easy to write. It can be written both horizontally and vertically in a left to right format.

The script has grown and changed a lot over the past few days, so there may be some errors within the script that differentiates from the given key.

I really do wanna make this script as easy and as fun to write as possible, so I ask for your thoughts and feedback on the script! (PLEASE)

note: Z, W, S and the E vowel marker have changed from previous iterations of the script.
