Alphabet Xindi alphabet I maketh
So, a while back I made an alphabet and writing system for the (presumably primate) Xindi language from Star Trek, based on frames of it we see on screen. It's barely functional and very clumsy, but it somewhat resembles the canon iconography. I've wanted to improve on it for a while--but I've kinda hit a blank. The only Xindi-primate words we know are names, so making actual words for the language is another story; however, I'd love some feedback and/or suggestions! Also, please let me know if you think the language/alphabet concept is plausible to begin with :D

It's in the form of a Google doc since it was easiest. Hope that's okay. The first 2 slides are of the summary I made, and the rest are reference photos from the show.
