Language code in progress

Here is my work-in-progress language/alphabet I call Zeroplus (because the last symbol looks like a zero with a plus sign).

Two hundred and fifty-six symbols in total, encompasing the sixtyish phonetic sounds, numbers, punctuation, mathematical/logic symbols, and most common words and concepts. Not everything is asigned though, still working on that part.

The whole purpose of this is trying to make a universal written language. The current alphabet has ambigous pronounciation, so Zeroplus is going to be very precise. By covering the most common words and concepts in language using a few symbols (or combination of symbols, still working on that too), people can put down their ideas in symbols and be understood, reguardless of what spoken language they use.

Also its purpose is to speed up communication. Typing is never quite as fast as speaking, but by making a messege more compact with fewer symbols and less ambiguity, communication will be much better.


So here it is, one of my many, many side projects....

New Post!

Wow, sorry for the lapse there. I've been busy with finals, traveling out of state, seeing my Dad during his two week break from Iraq, and summer school. Yeesh.

Lets see, there've been several potential topics percalating in my mind in the ensuing time. I wrote a paper on why India should invade North Korea (earn international respect and scare the heck out of Pakistan). I'm a month a way from being done with my two degrees (holding a graduation party the first weekend of August!). I'm contmeplating about whether to continue school, work, or volunteer and if I should move to do so (suggestions and contacts welcome!).

So, yeah... lots of things to talk about...
