Circ? Seriously? Would the first c be pronounced /k/ or /s/?
I'm finishing my paper now, I hope it will be ready soon. I want to get it out there already.
What I'm doing is partially analogous to Bax's famous paper, but I'm working in another section of the manuscript that allows for a number of non-linguistic additional checks and double checks. This makes it a very time consuming process: I have to go through a lot before I allow myself any degree of certainty about a glyph.
I was very cautious to avoid being influenced on my reading of the glyphs, so I have not compared them with other works until recently. I even avoided learning EVA values to keep my mind free from outside influence. I checked later and found out that a number of my values do correspond to EVA values, and a number to Bax / Voght values as well, but there are also a number of significant differences.
(I don't see this as a problem. If the writing system is based on the Latin one, as I suspect, an amount of convergence is to be expected).
