# Abjoid Conscript & AbjAng

## Abjoid Script

"*Abjoid"* is just a name for this script while I am developing it.

The *abj* part comes from the word *abjad*, a script class including the Arabic and Hebrew scripts. My conscript isn't really an abjad, but it is visually inspired by Arabic, and has a few similar features.

The *oid* part comes from the suffix *-oid*, meaning "alike in form".

## AbjAng Orthography

*"AbjAng"* is the name of the orthographic transcription method for writing English in this conscript. 

The *ang* part comes from *Anglo*, that is *English*, hence why it would be a misnomer to use *ang* in the script name.

As most orthographic transcription methods are somewhat deleterious, the majority of my own conscript orthographies are based upon my own NewEng Orthography, a lossless English orthography.

## To Do

* copy information from [Abjoid Blocky One font page](https://grphc.gitbook.io/phlowyd-design/portfolio/font-design/abjoid-blocky-one) because that info is much deeper and really belongs on this and its child pages.

[^1]: convert English to phonetics+etyms → convert through AbjAng to Abjoid
