Dear readers of Omniglot and Wiktionary
[edit]- I had been thinking of devising a way to write the Arabic language using the Tibetan script. For any feedback, is it okay to make a talk page on this page? --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 16:13, 29 December 2012 (UTC)
- P.s. I've been using the page on "Arabindi" as one source for ideas. --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 16:15, 29 December 2012 (UTC)
- Also note these instructions. --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 19:15, 10 September 2013 (UTC)
- Now I'm getting this impression that it could also be applied to Aramaic, Classical Syriac, and Mandaic languages. --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 02:50, 18 September 2013 (UTC)

- My description if this were on Omniglot:
- "The Arabic Tibetan Alphasyllabry, Arabetan for short, was devised by [name that I may or may not disclose, but I'm referencing to myself here] as an experiment on writing Classical Arabic in the Tibetan script, inspired by the constructed script of Arabindi. It could also utilize all five of the vowel diacritics in order to transcribe other related languages such as Aramaic, Classical Syriac, and Mandaic, perhaps even Hebrew. The informal name is a portmanteau of the words Arabic and Tibetan."
