There are 92 glyphs, which may be combined to form word-components. The glyph classes are Numeric = decimal digits, Content = lower case alphabetic, Utility = upper case alphabetic, Space = space character (also tab, new line etc.), and Other = everything else.
The major word classes are numbers, lexicals, and particles. The numbers are the cardinals and the ordinals. The lexicals are the lexical functions, pronouns, and content roots. The particles include the determiners as well as several other kinds.
Cardinal numbers are made up of non-empty numeric strings, with the most significant digit first. A period . '.' is used to mark the decimal point.
Numbers are signed by appending + '+' for positive numbers and ^ '^' for negative numbers.
An ordinal number is formed by appending o 'o' to a natural number. A reverse ordinal is formed by appending h 'h' instead. Examples: 3o "third" and 2h "next-to-last".
A literal begins with an apostrophe glyph ' followed by any number of glyphs and ends with another apostrophe glyph '. But note that any apostrophe glyph appearing within the literal must be doubled: ''.
A lexical function or pronoun consists of a single content glyph while a content root consists of a string of at least two content glyphs. A content stem is either a single content root or multiple content roots separated by periods . '.'. Pronouns are denoted by a subset of the single content glyphs. Other single content glyphs denote lexical functions, which are separated from preceding content stems by periods; note that no periods are used following cardinal numbers and literals.
A utility glyph preceded by * '*' specifies a clause conjunction; otherwise, it denotes a role, case, or phrase conjunction.
Space characters are used to keep adjacent lexicals, numbers, and literals distinct.
Each remaining function symbol consists of a single Other Glyph.
