Extended Style Guide

The style guide for this universal, photographs-based script is very simple:
The language is composed of subjects, objects, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs.

To assist here the grammatical function of nouns is indicated by colors:
  - subjects (noun) are in a ... red ... frame
  - objects (noun) are in a ... lila … frame
further:
  - verbs are in a ... blue... frame
  - adjectives are in a ... green … frame
  - adverbs are in a … turquoise …frame
Other types of words are framed in orange.

  • Where gender is important, it is indicated by the respective picture.
  • Where number is important, it can be indicated by providing a quantity in the respective picture.
  • Singular and plural get obvious from the respective picture.
  • Verbs are not conjugated but tenses will be explained in pictures, if relevant.
  • There are no articles.
  • The conventions for writing is easy – no risk for spelling errors. I just need to make sure, to write unambiguous pictures.
  • There is no need for capitalization (color codes assist in defining subjects and objects).
  • There is no need to introduce word breaks (each picture presents one word).
  • Word order follows standard English syntax.
  • Punctuation is limited to dots at the end of each sentence.
  • Questions have the same structure as affirmative sentences.
