Description Irken alphabet font (small, for avis): [link]

~~~

I just started learning Irken and the biggest thing that bugged me about it was how long it took to write each letter even in the simplified version. Surely Irkens would be too lazy to do that, so I decided that they probably had a very quick way of writing it which the computer would then change to the proper version automatically.

The simplified Irken is a modification of this version: [link]

Note that each speedwrite symbol is made without lifting the pen. A few of them can look the same if you're not careful (such as A and C) but I made sure none of them were totally the same.

A few tips:

D and O look the same, so on D I made the horizontal line diagonal.

M, O, and P are close. Make sure you have O with a shorter vertical line, M with equal lines, and P with a little third line at the bottom.

If you're just starting to learn Irken, I suggest having a reference sheet with both the original version and the speedwrite version. That way you become familiar with both instead of learning the speedwrite and then struggling with the real version later.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hope you guys found this useful. Feel free to print it out and use it as a reference. If you put it on a website, just make sure you credit it to me and link it to this page, or else I'll melt your face off or something.

Ingenius!
I was hoping someone would come up with something like this! I always waste ink when I fill in the letters, you know? This is brilliant!

This is really neat! I actually got bored a few days ago and wrote down the complicated blocky version, and it got annoying really fast. Now I'm going to use this instead!
Unfortunately, unlike the rest of you, I DO do this out of interest and not just for killing time. But then again, I'm a weirdo who wants to learn Russian.
I decided to make everything harder and add Irken to the list!
Anywho~ Thanks for making it! I'll definitely be using this soon! Ta ta!

Did you know that the popular Irken font isn't the one used in the subtitles? [link]

It boggled my mind. I'm learning this one though, because it's more popular and has every letter.

lawlz. That's awesome. XD

Assuming it was a proper hand-in, typed-up essay and not a small little thing it makes sense that they wouldn't want you drawing all over them. They prefer clean paper for that. But normal homework (especially math, I've found) is all free game.

I think Irkens wouldnΒ΄t write with their hands, by the way^^ (itΒ΄s all typed or the computer saves audio-messages and stuff)
In my opinion their letters would look very edgy, even when they are writing fast. I mean...they are controlled by machines! You would probably recognise a defective by his or her handwriting...

InvaderMax In reply to DeviantIrk [2010-01-17 19:01:43 +0000 UTC]

Most of the time, yeah, but there are occasions you see an Irken writing on a little electric pad. Like Zim in "Future Dib" and Purple in "Hobo 13." It was actually the quick way in which they write on those that inspired this.

Oooh, that's a neat idea. An alteration in the writing would probably be an excellent way to spot a defective.

DeviantIrk In reply to InvaderMax [2010-01-17 19:10:03 +0000 UTC]

So they do it, but only rarely...

Mh...I really should tell DefectiveFal about that. According to the kind of defect they could write in a normal way, but some might have problems with that...

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

InvaderMax In reply to DeviantIrk [2010-01-17 19:18:25 +0000 UTC]

It would certainly depend on the defective. Same as personality and such. It could be the same, but could be different.
