Font guidelines for sitelen pona: Difference between revisions

m
→‎Flexible glyphs: added some examples from linja lipamanka, and added another usage of ni. if someone wants to format this better, by all means please do. If someone knows how to add a font that isn't linja lipamanka, please add the seven ku glyphs from linja sike to the ku bullet point so people can see examples. I might not like that font all that much but those glyphs ARE decent and their proportions are official or something.

===Flexible glyphs===
Many characters in sitelen pona are widely considered to not be static and aren't supposed to be drawn the same way every time.
* '''{{tp|jaki}}''': any scribble, usually with overlaps, such as {{sp|jaki1 jaki2 jaki3 jaki4 jaki5 jaki6 jaki7 jaki8 jaki9 jaki10 jaki11}}
* '''{{tp|ko}}''': any blobby unshapely form, such as {{sp|ko1 ko2 ko3 ko4 ko5 ko6}}
* '''{{tp|ni}}''': many use {{tp|ni}} to point to the part {{tp|ni}} is referencing (up, down, right, or other directions, instead of the standard downwards arrow) like so: {{sp|ni> ni< ni^ niv}}
* '''{{tp|ni}}:''' often the line is extended if it's been rotated to the left or right, such as {{sp|ni>(--)}}
* '''{{tp|lete, kin}}''': rotation, and maybe even exact number of intersecting lines, aren't important
* '''{{tp|linja, kon, telo, pakala, mun}}''': can be mirrored
