Writing in pictogram glyphs. [added gen1 alphabet]



If anyone's interested I can put together alphabets for 2nd and 3rdgen glyphs~
_____________________________
Um, I had an idea to make a mask and/or antlers based off pictograms? Haven't yet, but I was thinking about designing concepts in the spirit of the game and pictograms really are a huge part of that, and I was thinking about how the glyphs that make up pictos have their own letters/numbers that correspond to each one. And I wanted to try to assemble some sort of message, TEF being the obvious choice, in the 'language' of the forest to inscribe on the set pieces. So I downloaded Aivilo's pictogram builders.

I haven't gone thoroughly through every frame, but in general it seems that for every letter of the alphabet there are two different glyphs in each generation. And each generation can be like it's own dialect. So I combined the two glyphs for each letter, and interlocked the other letters in a diagonal formation to create words:



Translations and which gen each word belongs to:



Not sure how accurate it is in theory, like I might have gotten some of the positions wrong because I didn't completely take into account glyphs that are the same just in a different location. I also know it doesn't fit with everyone's views of pictograms, for instance people who consider their characters names and their pictos to be the same, just translated, or those who like that idea that TEF deer speak an entirely different language. But I did think it was pretty neat and works well enough to form actual readable sentences that I would share for you guys to play around with =)

My Deer are sick! (it's really my computer, though) IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ

For anybody who has seen Spartak or Nireda glitch up all of a sudden while in the forest randomly, it its because of my computer. Or the game, I don't know. But when this happens, the deer may disappear right afterwards or stay there, not moving a muscle, and then disappear. And if someone rubs my deer, and in the game I don't rub back, it is because one or more of my buttons are broken: rub another deer, rub a tree, sniff another deer, and skip button are all broken. But I still know who you are, and my bow button is not broken. I will just press the sad button when I am about to leave or have glitching problems, which I have frequently now. This is strange because my game used to work perfectly....

thank you for understanding,
~Spartak
~Nireda

I'm new.

Hello,

I joined EndlessForest a little while back and I've just recently started interacting with other deer...
Please forgive me if I seem a bit awkward or something. I'm still getting used to everything. c:
