This publication is developed by the English missionary James Evans around 1840 Abugida, that is, each character stands for the initial consonant of a syllable, and the vowel syllable peak is dominated by various modifications, in this case by rotations of the consonant sign. This principle obviously goes back to the developed by Isaac Pitman shorthand.
