An interesting and relevant discussion about making characters easily recognizable:

Thanks for the feedback and discussion! I am taking it in, I am, really! However i'm not working much on ZLM just now. Don't let that stop you presenting ideas, though. I'll be back in the game soon enough.

Scratch that. Sorry. I see now.

I kind of dislike the full vowel "ei" character. It seems to standout a little. I like how it is inbetween "ai" and "oi", but maybe if it was just tweaked? But I do not really know how.

Just a thought: you know (maybe?) how Esperanto has an "U" with a breve for an approximate "W" sound? I see your Q and W kind of like that but only if prior to vowel. But Eperanto can use the "UX" after a vowel, while your system does not allow this. I really see no difference, could you explain to me what the reasons are for the asymmetry?

English is not my native language, and I rarely use it, so I apologise if there is any misunderstanding.

Concerning Stems (Latnik)

Maybe you can have plosives stemmed and fricatives without them. It would help in identification and would show an immediate superficial difference between the two types. "X" would not be able to be stemmed, so that is why I went with plosives.

How liquids would be changed, I do not know. Maybe only plosives are stemmed. Then liquids, fricatives, and even vowels are not.
