Hey all,
My boss's boss was trying to teach him Inuktut Syllabics but it didn't stick. As I think everyone should learn Inuktut, I wrote a low budget flashcards (desktop) app and put it on codeberg to help him out. If you're interested, it's here:

This fall I had a blast collaborating with Aandeg Muldrew and @niigaanwewidam.bsky.social to translate and re-design the UManitoba Department of Indigenous Studies program hoodies, now featuring Ojibwe syllabics. 😍

I used to think Hangul was the coolest writing system, but now I think Cree syllabics are about as elegant and compact as can be.

Syllabics aren't a mathematical exercise. They also require an understanding of stress if they're to come alive.
Poetry in English possesses two separate but intertwined beats. First of all, the stresses. And secondly, underneath those stresses, the syllables. The subtle latter are often drowned out by the strident former. But if you listen hard enough, the syllabics are there, underpinning everything.
