Which alphabet/writing system do you find most aesthetically pleasing /int/? If you could would you change your countries alphabet/writing syste,?

I have to say Cyrillic, Arabic, katakana and Georgian script all look a lot more beautiful than Latin.

What alphabet do they use in Singapore? Must be fairly unique since you're such a mix of different cultures

Oh I mean about the alphabet, not the spoken language. Singapore seems to be a country that appreciates efficiency, so I'm wondering if you guys use the latin alphabet or Hanji or another form of writing and for what reasons.

>>70712536
English primarily
then simplified chinese, bahasa-malayu and some urdu

I agree, it's incredibly beautiful. I wish there was a larger tradition of this with the latin alphabet but I guess it's more challenging to do. Only examples I can think of are stylized letters in old books from medieval and the german texts
>>
>>70712350
Probably Georgian
>>
The alphabet is the best current writing system imo.
Korean hangeul or whatever it's called is pretty aesthetic, I like it.
If we go by efficiency, I would say everyone on the planet has to learn the international phonetic alphabet

Yes. Since creature illustration was forbidden by hardcore islam, people resorted into calligraphy for art.
It's cool to see when people's creativity is used around certain restrictions. It always result in something unique.

It's pretty unique, I was skeptical that cantor chose it for categorizing the cardinality of infinities but it looks cool

Also it's written from right to left like arabic
