| '''Kamiya''' (''writing'') is an alphabet developed to write [[Amal]].
| |
| It is based on [[wp:Abjad|Semitic abjads]].
| |
| It is written right-to-left.
| |
|
| |
| == Full Alphabet ==
| |
|
| |
| [[File:Z kam cons.png]]
| |
|
| |
| * <small>'''kapu''' is the only letter to retain a final form</small>
| |
| * <small>'''om''' has no full form and is written over '''wa''' when it begins or ends a word</small>
| |
| * <small>'''qupa''' is used for the glottal stop, /ʔ/, but can be used for /q/ in names and toponyms</small>
| |
|
| |
| == Vowel Marks ==
| |
|
| |
| [[File:Kamiya vows 2.png]]
| |
|
| |
| These vowel marks are used to indicate vowels within words. Note that /e/ has no mark and is the only vowel omitted when it occurs within a word.
| |
|
| |
| [[File:Z shehet.png]] '''shehet kaba''' - /ʃɛˌɦet kabˌa/ - <small>MED-tree be.large-3s</small> - ''That tree is large.''
| |
|
| |
| The top example is incorrect, and notice in the bottom example, the /a/ marked on the /k/ is the only mark used. The final /a/ on '''kaba''' ends the word, and therefore is written in full form.
