The encoding has separate characters for the start and end of a cartouche. This is because cartouches can span across more than one word, and so fonts need both ends delineated to know which letters they extend over.

The Derani alphabet (Toaq:    áofabeta mı Deranı) is the official native writing system of Toaq, first introduced in Toaq Delta. It is the successor of Hoelai.

Symbols

Below is a list of Derani letters. Vowels share letters with consonants.

Unicode encoding

To type Derani characters, we use the block EDB0–EDEF of the Unicode Private Use Area. Check out the toaq/fonts repository on GitHub for fonts that can display these characters. See here for typing Derani.

Use of the combining characters follows Unicode convention, with tone marks appearing immediately after the letter they attach to, and the diphthong mark appearing between the two letters it attaches to.

The encoding has separate characters for the start and end of a cartouche. This is because cartouches can span across more than one word, and so fonts need both ends delineated to know which letters they extend over.
