Description This is my translation of the Word of Thoth. For those who don't know, that's a mythical language from Matthew Reilly's 'Seven Ancient Wonders' that uses our alphabet. MR said he'd add the translation on his website, but I couldn't find it, so I decided (during a very boring ECA lesson) to do it myself. There are two letters I just can't find. Sorry if the picture isn't very good quality.
Feel free to use.

This was how I located you, found that you had a deviation called Word of Thoth and typed it in, then followed the links (don't ask why I had to do that to locate you...I can't remember).
It's a unique thing on dA.
And a very very good thing.
CLEVER SHINY!

Clever? whats this 'clever' thing you're talking about?
Actually I just did this in my 'extra curricular activities' time (ECA).

Well, finding all (well most of) the letters and even thinking to do it in the first place. I tried to teach myself how to write in Dragon Script (from the Dragonology books) and could for a while, then forgot -___- oh well I make my own languages now

I tried teaching myself about the languages from lord of the rings, but it didn't really work as I haven't even finished them yet.

They're actually quite hard to read. Time consuming too.

Haven't seen the movie yet either. The hobbit or lord of the rings (despite my dad owning all of the latter.)

We got 'em on DVD.
You know, I've eaten white chocolate that went out of date before I was born. About two years back, when we helped the church do christmas hampers. We got to eat it 'cos it was snapped to bits and had melted and was all grainy, then I flipped over the packet and was like 'hey guys... this says best before fourteen years ago...'

The main letters were pretty easy, but then I had a few I had to look really hard to find. Mainly, I just have too much time.
