From UniLang Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

The Nhängqäkupoqh alphabet consists of 18 consonant letters derived from pictographs (resembling a word that starts with that consonant) and 6 vowel letters that were invented later. Nhängqäkupoqh is written from left to right. The alphabet is given in the traditional order here. But I'm afraid I can only show approximation, because Unicode does not support Nhängqäkupoqh.
