Bulughman alphabet

The Bulughman alphabet was invented by TJ to write his conlang of the same name. The conlang is spoken by nomadic people that live on a hypothetical world on the eastern boundaries where they met Alexander, a conquestador, who taught them how to write their own language and communicate.

Notable features

Direction of writing: right to left in horizontal lines
The basic inspiration for letter shapes was the flipped Latin letters

The isolated form of the letter is a form by which this letter is written separated from any word, like for ordering things or just to mention the letter alone if the occasion is to be so.
