Be aware that in its current state, it may not include all additional content yet.

The women's script is a writing system used in Vorin nations, such as Alethkar, Jah Keved, and Kharbranth, on Roshar. The script is a phonetic alphabet, meaning each symbol denotes a particular sound or "phoneme". The meaning of each letter is determined by both shape and size.

Trivia

  • The only samples of Alethi script currently available are three excerpts from Navani's notebook
  • It was designed by Isaac Stewart, to look like waveforms.
  • Neither Brandon nor Isaac can read Alethi without reference.Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; refs with no name must have content
