Toaq is written using an extended form of the Latin alphabet or Derani. This page seeks to track the Latin script fonts patched for Toaq support (usually to add the characters Ꝡ and ꝡ along with the "combining dot below" for prefixes), those that support it without special patching, and the bespoke fonts created for writing Derani.
Latin script
Included by default
Few freely-available fonts not specially patched to do so (including those on Google Fonts) have full support for the Toaq latin-script alphabet and diacritics:
Sans-serif
Slab-serif
Serif
- Junicode
- Cardo
- Gentium (Book) Plus
- Noto Serif
- Caudex (partial support; it lacks an underdot glyph, which means the underdot will display incorrectly in most contexts)
Monospaced
Patched fonts
These are fonts which have unofficial versions created by the community to fully support Toaq. In general, these are minimal edits that only add the exact glyphs required for Toaq usage. If you would like to patch a font yourself, see the article Patching latin-script fonts for more details.
(TODO: Provide download links to the various formats, provide visuals of Toaq text in all of these fonts, create the guide on patching fonts, and patch more fonts to put here!)
Sans-serif
- Iosevka Aile
- Commissioner
- Fira Sans Regular, Italic, and Bold (as seen in the Toaq course Koıtıeq)
- Neu5Land Regular and Bold (the example font in the aforementioned Patching latin-script fonts article)
Slab-serif
Monospace
Derani
Sans-serif
- Iosevka Aile
- Derani (as seen in the Toaq Delta Reference Grammar)
- Juitiaq
- Neajiaq
