JRRT actually did create such a vertical script, which was used in the Blessed Realm before Feanor got around to creating the Tengwar as we know them today: the Sarati of Ruumil. This is a TTB LTR abjad, like Mongolian. Vowel marks appearing to the left of the consonants are pronounced before them; those to the right, after them. http://user.tninet.se/~xof995c/sarati.htm -- John Cowan http://www.ccil.org/~cowan [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please leave your values | Check your assumptions.
