hey, I was recently posed a question on discord if anyone had attempted to compile show-canon gallifryan, google gives me a post from you about 4 years ago with a few show screenshots but I vaguely remember a larger catalogue being on this website at some point. Any ideas?

Hi! Is this the post you’re talking about?

Hmm, to my knowledge there isn’t one - or wasn’t one at the time I was actively looking because that was one of the main reasons I did this post - but if you find something i’d love to see it!

hi, sorry, I'm trying to write "tea" but I'm realising I'm not sure how to make Os and Es cause looking at the charts I thought the e was on the line but in the examples it looks like an a that is less floaty and the o is the one on the line but if e is floaty like a how can one be 100% sure what is a and what e?

Hi! Try and think of each letter as being part of a whole circle, and then as you add letters on the indentations occur. The E is still technically on the line of the circle, but because the T is indented already, it looks like it’s just floating. Similarly the A is always outside the extremities of the circle, irrespective of indentation from other letters. The O is unique because it’s usually floating within the circle somewhere but it can also be latched on to the previous consonant.

In the guide I made for Sherman’s Gallifreyan there’s a chart in ‘STEP 2- VOWELS IN RELATION TO CONSONANTS’ that should be helpful in explaining the different ways vowels get attached to consonants in words. I hope this helps!

love your blog! it's nice to see gallifreyan. what do you think of locke and key?

Thank you so much! I'm MILDLY obsessed with Locke and Key. Key quests are a personal favourite fantasy trope. Hmm, I haven't done new Gallifreyan stuff in a while, but maybe a Gallifreyan Locke and Key crossover? A key that lets you regenerate? Or opens a door to Gallifrey?

There's a bunch of stuff I never posted so it might randomly show up here with zero context.

...honestly this barely makes sense with context so...
