SaKalurilut is written in its own, alphabetic script (called ''sakallana ngaSulurilut''), which is a derivative of an older form of the [[Skyrdagor|Skyrdegan script]], a script it retains a large degree of mutual intelligibility with, despite a few differences through further simplifications the Skyrdegan script underwent and a different printing and typesetting style (the Kalurilut script is characterized by more curved lines). | |||

Kalurilut has a rather small consonant inventory, with only twelve ''native'' consonants; every Kalurilut dialect, however, adds at least /ʃ/ in loans due to its high occurrence in loans from Skyrdagor and Chlouvānem; many dialects, including the standard one, also add /h/ mainly from the same sources. | Kalurilut has a rather small consonant inventory, with only twelve ''native'' consonants; every Kalurilut dialect, however, adds at least /ʃ/ in loans due to its high occurrence in loans from Skyrdagor and Chlouvānem; many dialects, including the standard one, also add /h/ mainly from the same sources. | ||
