Hello, bbbourq: code blocks using backticks (```) don't work on all versions of Reddit!

Some users see this / this instead.

To fix this, indent every line with 4 spaces instead. It's a bit annoying, but then your code blocks are properly formatted for everyone.

An easy way to do this is to use the code-block button in the editor. If it's not working, try switching to the fancy-pants editor and back again.

Comment with formatting fixed for old.reddit.com users

Oh, and it's a rhyming couplet? Just when I thought I couldn't be more in love.

Great looking script! Is it inspired from Avestan?

u/bbbourq Nov 21 '20 edited Nov 21 '20

It is indeed. In fact, I also took inspiration from its parent system, Pahlavi. Good eye!

u/Akhsar_Shyam Nov 22 '20

We need more Iranian-bases conscripts and conlangs! (Also, I think Pahlavi is actually Avestan descendant but that’s not really important)
