Hangraphy (maybe 漢抓?) is a system for representing Indo-European roots with Han characters (漢字, hanzi). After having done so, we can add a kind of okurigana for inflections and such and we have a readymade scheme to represent all Indo-European languages. Oversimplificated? You betcha.
For an example, we can take the numbers, which are pretty basic.
| 1 | 一 | *oi-[no-] | en: one, ru: один, la: unus, etc. |
| 2 | 二 | *dwo- | en: two, es: dos, grc: δύο, ... |
| 3 | 三 | *tri- | en: three, fr: trois, de: drei ... |
| 4 | 四 | *kʷetwor- | en: four |
| 5 | 五 | *penkʷe | en: five |
| 6 | 六 | *(s)(w)eḱs | en: six |
| 7 | 七 | *septem | en: seven |
| 8 | 八 | *oḱtō | en: eight |
| 9 | 九 | *newn | en: nine |
| 10 | 十 | *deḱm | en: ten |
Since words get borrowed about so much, some diverse words in a language may be spelled with the same zi, e.g. 一 goes in English words derived from "one", such as "alone" or "only", but it also goes in words of Latin origin such as "unique" or "union".
Of course some of these words inflect, so the Latin word for "one", for example, won't just be 一, but perhaps something like 一us, 一a, 一um.
