I would likely implement a mathematics and science system, in both transcription and translation.

I agree there

That would be a leap forword, However it would take a lot of time and an understanding of both the simple and advanced aspects of both.

it would. but a 1000 mile journey begins with a single step

I've been writing in dragon in some of my classes recently, English, French and art. I'd love to add biology and geometra under my belt.

Where do we start? I vote the begining of science, physics. We already have fus. All who agree say "zu'u."

Zu'u!

Moved this to Dragon Language Discussion!

So we start by transliterating equations?

Is there a Dovahzul character for

• addition(+)
• subtraction(-)
• equality(=)
• negation(- or ¬)
• multiplication(* or ×)
• division(/ or ÷)

already?

EDIT: We don't have any of those symbols, however "oo" is already mapped to "*"(*)(

If we were to transliterate, we would need to know the difference between lower and upercase letters, no?

If not, it would be extrememly easy, just copy the whole of this page^sqa.org.uk/ and wrap some square brackets around it. You'd have a problem when it comes to formatting(fractions, sub/superscript characters, etc.)

Well, actually we don't. We give each value a specific abbreviation of letters. i.e.

C (which is the speed of light) would become SOL or

Upside down lettes would be their runes upside down

greek symbols (ex delta) would be a makeshift version of the symbol using dragon runes, as in making a triangle out of talon scratches.

Though it will become particularly tricky when it comes to sub or superscripted letters

I think the fraction symbol should be a full sized foward-diagonal scratch (since it signifies division it will apply there as well

Rather than writting equations the way we know how, we could say them outloud with normal words.

ex. gein lok gein los gein.

One over one equals one.

Interesting concept. I think this can be used to further memorize equations, though it cannot replace handwritten altogether. If you mean translation w/o transliteration then it could be the InDev version of Dovahhasebom
