DESCRIPTION: Cond-English was designed with one primary purpose in mind: higher writing efficiency. When read, it sounds identical to spoken English, so there is no linguistic difference besides an alternative script. Since many words and characters in cond-English are or appear foreign, it can be also used in a few applications such as encrypting writings in a journal or blog post.
STRUCTURE: Cond-English implements a consonantal root system similar to languages such as Arabic, Punjabi and Farsi, only using vowels when necessary. By significantly slashing the vowel count, textual space efficiency is tremendously increased. Circumflexes are used to indicate long vowels. Several letters from Old English such as thorn (þ), eth (ð) and wynn (ƿ) are also repurposed in cond-English to add extravagance and further increase the space efficiency. Below, an alphabetical chart demonstrates the characters present in cond-English and their associated pronunciations.
