Logographic writing systems are just a pain in the ass. You have to create huge fonts, you waste ridiculous amounts of space, and you need phonetic descriptions of new words anyways.
Like I said, Hawaiian would be cool since it fits inside a nibble with 16 characters, although the words tend to get long.
- K0SM0S 7y agoConsidering how the brain seems to process words when reading ('glancing in context' more than analyzing each letter), I'm pretty sure the length of words does not make reading much longer. Writing is another matter but with auto-predict you could probably shove half the typing off on average. As a software engineer and cousin of Stitch, Hawaiian gets my vote! :handclap:
