''' | '''Hoelai''' (Toaq: '''{{t|mí Hỏelaı}}''', or in Hoelai, {{script|mPi EhNoyl}}) is a writing system for versions of Toaq prior to Delta developed by [[Hoemai]]. It was succeeded by [[Derani]]. | ||

Version 3 was published on the 31st of July 2022 on [https://toaqlanguage.wordpress.com/2022/07/31/hoelai-3-and-new-phonotactics/ The Toaq Blog]. | |||
There are now only two possible patterns a syllable can take: | |||
# Consonant in the middle with vowel to the right, tone on top, and -q / -y below; or | |||
# Consonant in the middle with diphthong to the left and tone on top | |||
In addition, a bare consonant no longer implies there to be an “a” there. | |||
Since these changes would make CVV(q) and CVF syllables impossible to write as one syllable, there is a shortcut form which is a ligature of {{script|q}} + a vowel. (See right "Shortcut vowel characters".) | |||
===Zodiac mode=== | |||
'''Zodiac mode''' turns Hoelai into a syllabary by combining consonant and vowel characters. Below, the list of characters. | |||
{| | |||
|The order of the finals are:||-a, -u, -ı, -o, -e, -aı, -ao, -oı, -ou, -eı,<br>-aq, -uq, -ıq, -oq, -eq, -y | |||

== Version 2 == | |||
This generation is only available as a [https://toaqlanguage.wordpress.com/2020/10/22/the-hoelai-writing-system-2nd-edition/ pilot demonstration article]. Since it hinges on a yet unimplemented phonology overhaul, it cannot yet be used in practice, nor has a font been made for it yet. | This generation is only available as a [https://toaqlanguage.wordpress.com/2020/10/22/the-hoelai-writing-system-2nd-edition/ pilot demonstration article]. Since it hinges on a yet unimplemented phonology overhaul, it cannot yet be used in practice, nor has a font been made for it yet. | ||
== | == Version 1 == | ||
A Toaq syllable is analysed into four Hoelai parts: | |||
#The consonant, which becomes the glyph in the middle | |||
#The first phoneme in the nucleus, which is written right of the consonant (unless it is {{t|a}}, in which case it should be omitted) | |||
#The rest of the nucleus, written left of the consonant (optional) | |||
#The tone, together with the coda (presence/absence of {{t|-q}}), written above. (This part is empty for neutral tone syllables without {{t|-q}}.) | |||
Note that if the nucleus ends in a diphthong – one of {{t|-aı, -ao, -oı, -eı}} – it is treated as a (3). Moreover, if this diphthong is the whole nucleus, (2) is omitted in favour of it. For example, {{t|maı}} is understood to be <code>m--ai</code>, not <code>m-a-i</code>; it would be written with the {{t|-aı}} glyph from (3). | Note that if the nucleus ends in a diphthong – one of {{t|-aı, -ao, -oı, -eı}} – it is treated as a (3).

This generation of Hoelaı was designed for an old version of the Toaq phonology, and as such retains the now-deprecated high ({{tone|1}}) and falling-rising ({{tone|3old}}) tones, and this documentation will refer to those tones as they were at the time of release. To use the script for current Toaq, the {{tone|1}} diacritics are never written, and {{tone|3old}} diacritics are used for {{tone|3}}. | |||
Hoemai has shared a list of glyphs in a PDF. You can get it [[File:ToaqScript sheet.pdf|here]]. | |||

==== Mỉao’s modified font ==== | |||
Hoemaı’s version above does not include characters for some letters. Mỉao has created a version [[Media:ToaqScript (with y glyph).ttf|here]] which has more characters. | |||
Capital “C” is used for “y” and capital “J” is used for “nh”. | |||
Unfortunately, some characters (e.g. “Z”) just can’t be added because in v1, those characters correspond to different sounds. | |||
