RE: Ali Gali U+1887

Hi Greg,



For U+1887_ALIGALI_A, all of the linguists say there only isolate and final
forms.

They says no initial and medial form. I will be not able to provide any kind
of documentation for this two variant forms.



The reason why we selected the Initial form and medial form is

1.      Some of linguists see this character as the special variant form
(Only when transcript Sanskrit ? ) of A (phonetic).

When we give this variant form separate Unicode code point it become U+1887.


But we show the isolate form on the Initial position and medial position, it
is not like Mongolian text itself.

2.      According to Mongolian writing common rule, Mongolian Initial form
should not have any kind of tail, while Medial form have no any king of head
and any kind of tail.

We followed this rule and created this two Initial and Medial form of
U+1887_ALIGALI_A. (I think maybe MenkSoft have same consideration on their
medial form of the character)

3.      Character U+1888_ALIGALI_I is exactly same situation with the
U+1887_ALGALI_A, but U+1888_ALGALI_I have all isolate, Initial, Medial,
Final form, some of them is same with U+1822_I.

I think U+1887_ALIGALI_A should follow same rule with U+1888_ALIGALI_I,
select  one of the Initial and Medial form of  U+1820_A to remain the
encoding list’s completeness and  support the Mongolian writing’s harmony.



Thanks and Best Regards,



Jirimutu

Hi Jirimutu,



Do you have some examples that we can document for the 1887 Initial and
Medial?

I don’t have anything on these two positions and currently say that they
are not existent.

Thanks,

Greg
