Talk:Iokharic

The number 0 and numbers beyond double digits.

Noticed while I was drooli-ahem, admiring the Keys from the Golden Vault cover art that there was Draconic script on it (80% of the reason I bought it) On the vault lock itself appears to be the numbers 1-13 (Starting at 12 o'clock and going clockwise)

Two things I noted is that the Iokharic 'alphabet'/Draconic language, whichever, appears to express numbers in base 10 by adding another digit like us, no shock. But it does so by extending the larger horizontal mark -common to all numbers- between the digits of the number being expressed. So that it forms one continuous line, at least for the numbers 10-13. Presumable it works with larger numbers too.

The second thing I spotted is the number 0 is missing from the image of the alphabet, but there's an otherwise unknown character forming part of the (presumed) number 10 on the cover. It's got the short and long horizontal marks like the other numbers, with an unattached / at about 45 degrees, reaching halfway down the 'J' part of the number 1 character's length.

If this has been spotted before then, hey I nerded out over common facts but I've not seen this before, and it's not on any relevant pages... Which brings me to my reason for writing all this:

I'm not sure WHERE to put this or how to write it up to a decent standard. I'm also unsure where the picture on the Iokharic script's page comes from and if editing it to include a 0 would be a no-no so I'll leave that to the pros for now!

External link in case it's a no-no and easier to delete!
