Letters

the set of Alphabet

In Astralica, all the letters were made according to a rule/pattern.

 

Astralica was started back at 2020, along the time, many different scripts has been made and discarded, during the process, new letters are added but here (this post) are the final types of scripts.

Ancient Script

The first and the most original form of the Astralica Letters, nowadays used for Caligraphy and art.

For the consonants, noticed that each column uses the different part of the mouth, from left to right, they are :

lips, teeth, jaw, tongue and throat. If you look close enough, each consonant that belongs to a category will contain one of the following radicals :

lips

130.png

teeth

140.png

jaw

150.png

tongue

160.png

throat

teeth and Jaw

those consonants using the teeth are focused on a SINGLE point at the front, so the radical has ONE hook

those consonants using the jaw are focused on TWO sides of the jaw, so the radical has TWO hook

For the consonants, noticed that based on the different level of stress/power/strength, each radical is accompanied by a fragment to form the consonant

Astralica Vowels started with /a/, /ə -> e/, /i/, /o/, /u/

by "morphing"(starting with a vowel and change one part of the mouth), we are able to end up with /æ/ and /ü/

everytime when a "morph" is done, the symbol will alter a little bit

here what we meant by /ė/ and /ë/ are vowels that Chinese uses :

an example in hanyuPinyin, we have "qi", "ci", "chi", all using the same romanize letter "i" but they are actually different

ü

a and æ, u and ü

start with "a", and push your tongue foward, you will end up with "æ"

and same goes with "u" and "ü"

Formal Script

Anchor 2

If the Ancient script is somehow equivalent to the Greek letters or Runes, then the Formal Script is somehow equivalent to TimesNewRoman,this is used for Formal Letters or reports or declarations.

Here you can see the characters and radicals are simplifying, with slightly lesser strokes.

e, i, y, ė, and ë

at this point, i, y, ė, and ë has been categorized into the same row

/i/ is a "morph" of "e", since you can start with /e/ and push your tongue foward to get /i/,

/y/ is the consonant variant for /i/,

/ė/ is a morph of /i/, where you start with /i/, and bite down your front teeth

/ë/ is a morph of /ė/, where you start with your front teeth (/ė/) and you pull back your jaw (/ë/)

Casual Script

Anchor 3

If you were to look at both Ancient script and Formal script, you can see there are way too many strokes, such that it will take a long time to write the whole sentence. That's why the casual script is the simplified version of the letters, it is meant to be simple, cute, but still elegant at the same time.

/s/,/z/,/c/, and /x/,/j/,/q/ share the same radical ?

 

not quite, the stress part for /s/,/z/,/c/ only occupies the left side only

while the stress part for /x/,/j/,/q/ occupies both sides, crossing the radical
