The Lortho [[w:alphabet|alphabet]] | The writing system of Lortho is called '''Dhadakha''', so named from the first three letters. It is an [[w:alphabet|alphabet]] with some [[w:Featural_writing_system|featural aspects]] in denoting [[w:Aspirated_consonant|aspirated]] vs [[w:Tenuis_consonant|tenuis consonants]]. Dhadakha is comprised of 21 letters, one of which is a vowel. The writing system behaves in a similar manner to an [[w:abugida|abugida]]; however, there are no conjunct consonants and vowels are given equal status as consonants. Ligatures are formed by consonant + vowel with the vowels [i] and [ɛ] being the exceptions. Lortho's script was inspired by the [[w:Devanagari|Devanagari]], [[w:Uchen_script|Uchen]], and [[w:Tengwar|Tengwar]] writing systems. | ||
