That would be a leap forword, However it would take a lot of time and an understanding of both the simple and advanced aspects of both. |

I've been writing in dragon in some of my classes recently, English, French and art. I'd love to add biology and geometra under my belt. Where do we start? I vote the begining of science, physics. We already have fus. All who agree say "zu'u." |

So we start by transliterating equations? Is there a Dovahzul character for
already?
EDIT: We don't have any of those symbols, however "oo" is already mapped to "*"(*)( Thanks Mirkrilaar )

So we start by transliterating equations?
Is there a Dovahzul character for
- addition(+)
- subtraction(-)
- equality(=)
- negation(- or ¬)
- multiplication(* or ×)
- division(/ or ÷)
already?

If we were to transliterate, we would need to know the difference between lower and upercase letters, no? If not, it would be extrememly easy, just copy the whole of this pagesqa.org.uk/ and wrap some square brackets around it. You'd have a problem when it comes to formatting(fractions, sub/superscript characters, etc.) |

Well, actually we don't. We give each value a specific abbreviation of letters. i.e. C (which is the speed of light) would become SOL or SOL
Upside down lettes would be their runes upside down greek symbols (ex delta) would be a makeshift version of the symbol using dragon runes, as in making a triangle out of talon scratches. Though it will become particularly tricky when it comes to sub or superscripted letters I think the fraction symbol should be a full sized foward-diagonal scratch (since it signifies division it will apply there as well |

Rather than writting equations the way we know how, we could say them outloud with normal words. ex. gein lok gein los gein. One over one equals one. |

Interesting concept. I think this can be used to further memorize equations, though it cannot replace handwritten altogether. If you mean translation w/o transliteration then it could be the InDev version of Dovahhasebom |
