Tengwar shorthand notation #25

Closed kriskowal closed 4 years ago

kriskowal commented 4 years ago

It may be useful for tests to use a shorthand of my Tengwar Object Notation. The current form is very explicit but very verbose. I am thinking of a form that might look like:

thule;silme-nuquerna:e;short-carrier:e
Th SnE ScE
helcaraxë
hyarmen;lambe:e;quesse;romen:a;quesse:a,s;short-carrier:e output
Hy EL Q AR AQS ScE

Is there a full list of all of the symbols and the names you've given them somewhere? That way I could show the proper use of the vowel Y.

All of the names are in alphabet.js. I’m open to renaming the file abugida.js in the interest of strict correctness.
