distinct from the Latin alphabet to avoid the impression that the new spellings were simply misspellings.

Þe Ŝavian (and derivative) contractions are fascinating. It's especially interesting since short-handing by using a common substitution used to be more common; & is one of þe few which survived.

Do you write Shavian long-hand, or only typing?
