Lots o'glyphs
358, to be exact. An extended Qatama syllabary. I'll post a sample phrase in due time.

very nice. some of them are complex enough to make me feel dizzy looking at them.

How easy is it to tell which glyph you're reading when you're reading? Looks like it would be easy to make a mistake. How easy is it to write? Looks like it could take a lot of time and/or effort.

How easy is it to tell which glyph you're reading when you're reading? Looks like it would be easy to make a mistake. I think that would depend on the individual's literacy level, don't you think? How easy is it to write? Looks like it could take a lot of time and/or effort. Actually, it's very easy to write, one could even write it with one's finger in the dirt, and again, the individual's literacy level would play a key role in his/her ability to write it. I equate this to a very minimal Hanzi. Only 358 glyphs to remember, compared to 6,000 at the collegiate level for a Mandarin speaker.

You could be right.
