eh
The 'eh', most used vowel, is quite distinctive.
r
The 'r' is the 'eh' with a straight line up.
s
The 's' shape is also used in some other letters.
sh
A 's' with a little dash that is often used to alter letters.
t
The round top is the main difference to the 'v'.
v
It has a sharp top (<> t).
k
The 'k' has a straight short line at its left side.
l
The first of a series with a curve at the left (unlike 'k'). The 'l' has a straight line.
n
Like the 'l', but with a curve to the right at the top.
a
A 'l' with a curve to the left.
o
The 'o' (round bottom) is the basis for some other letters, 'u', 'oy' and 'oo'.
u
'o' with a curve to the right, like the one at the 'n'.
g
The 'g' has a dash again. The sharp corner at the left is important.
ah
The 'ah' introduces a new basic shape.
Now we can start with some words. I have decided to type all D'ni words in light gray.
