Just messing around with the *Baybayin fonts I created. Answering what would a newspaper look like if it was printed using Modern Baybayin Script.

*Baybayin is an ancient form of writing by indigenous tribes of the pre-Spanish archipelago now known as the Philippines.

it would take a non-experienced baybayin reader more than an hour to read all of this.. hahaha.. as I myself read this and it took time for me to finish it.

Astig. Ang lupit!
kasali na ba rito yung modern and borrowed letters (e.g c,f,j,x,v,z)?
Maybe, hindi pa aabot sa 10% ng Filipino youth ang nakaka-appreciate ng baybayin/alibata pero kung titingnan mo itong dyaryong ito, masasabi mong napaka-elegante talaga ng ating sinaunang titik. =)
I agree dun sa mga taong gustong isama ito sa curriculum ng Philippine education. I remember one time, pina-encode kami ng "Lupang Hinirang" using Tagalog Baybayin and it was fun.

The only modifications included on this piece is my modern RA character, spaces between words, and the Spanish virama (cross kudlit). The Tagalog phonetic spelling/approximations for ce, fa, ja, ex, and zed are used, namely: se/si, pa, d'ya, ek's/ik's, and sa respectively.

asteg! nakakatuwa talaga pag nakakakita ako ng artworks na may Baybayin. :3

sir thank you for making the wonderful fonts! me and my friend will be using them in our future works. :D (we're planning on making it our signature on our artworks and create DA id's with either the fonts or with traditional calligraphy *with speedball hahaha*) sana ok lang po? ....kahit anime ang usual artworks namin. that's what i'm mostly good at. ^^; i'm trying to re-memorize Baybayin as i've not used it for how many years. ok lang po bang gamitin ang kahit anong version ng Baybayin o may certain version po ng Baybayin ang kailangang gamitin? marami po kasing versions...hindi ko alam kung alin ang gagamitin namin..ehehehe plano ko rin kasing mag pa-tattoo at magpagawa ng singsing atbp na may Baybayin balang araw. (medyo umiiral rin kasi pagka OC ko hahaha)
