Description: The Chinese in Shidinn Script (Shidinn: xdi8 aho fHLmA fa7Vi, Pronunciation: /ɕ(i).tĩ a.xo f(u).n͡zao.mu fa.tʰwei.(j)i//), commonly named Shidinn, is a constructed language invented by folk linguist Huáng Quèfēi. It is mainly based on one-to-one correspondance of Chinese characters. With 45 Shidinn letters of both phoneme and semantics, every single character includes zero to multiple semantic letters (radicals) and a complete syllable (phonetic series) which is an artificial phonology loosely based on southwestern Mandarin but not always comparable with Chinese as a sacrifice to more canonical phonotactis than Chinese. As a result, every character has a theoretical Shidinn pronunciation.

Shidinn itself is an incomplete language, because grammar is missing apart from phonology and vocabulary. Huáng have devoted to developing a grammar but most of his manuscript have lost and his subsequent Shidinn texts are but transliteration of Chinese. There are some but not all Shidinidos adapting Huáng’s Shidinn phonology to new created grammar, including Common Shidinn, ‘Standard’ Shidinn, Shidio-Zhiyuanian. Therefore the term ‘Shidinn’ commonly refers to its determined part, i.e. phonology and vocabulary, similar to the concept of absolute geometry.
