-=== Rotational Modifiers ===
+The period, or the comma, give a dot. Two periods, or a colon, give a double dot. Three periods, or a semicolon, give a triple dot.

+The dot signifies a meaningful character, or a logographic character, as well as a phrase end.  The double dot signifies either a reduplicated character, or a longer phrase end, as well as a pause. It can also mean that the character it is under or over affects the previous character's pronunciation, especially for vowel-focused characters. The triple dot signifies an intentional tone mark, abrupt ends, long pauses, and the likes.
-| Bb!      | Bb!      | Upside down horizontally squashed                     |
+Other diacritic are sound helpers. They are not commonly used but especially useful in obscure words or with old fashion written words.

+| . | . | , | Under word, say the whole word meant, logographic forms are rare but still occurring. standalone, is a short pause. |
+| : | : | .. | Reduplicates and/or lengthens the character's sound, or affect the previous one if a vowel. Standalone, is a longer pause. |
+| ; | ; | ... | Tone change mark under a character. On its own, either an abrupt end or a long pause. |
+| a | a | | |
+| e | e | | |
+| i | i | | |
+| o | o | | |
+| u | u | | |
+| m | m | q/r | either gives a nasal quality to longer vowels when there is no n to turn into an m, or is used to denotes kh or gh or lh. Standalone is rare but gives a pensive or ridicule sense. |
+| f | f | s/c | turns part of the character into a voiceless fricative |
+| p | p | t/k | turns part of the character into a voiceless plosive |
+| v | v | z/j | turns part of the character into a voiced fricative |
+| h | h | | shows the character has no vowel and is pronounced quickly. On its own denotes the general meaning of "Hm." |
+=== Positional and Rotational Modifiers ===
+As opposed to the other fonts, there are no rotation and position changes. Text is written from left to write with diacritics when necessary, but no further change. This is due to the limitations of typewriters, and the general distancing from logographic writing.
