Ukilen logographs, characters, symbols, are a logographic writing system used in many languages on Ukilen and places influenced by Ukilen countries.

Radicals and reading them

Ukilen logographs typically are read from left to right, top to bottom in the character. The stroke order usually follows this as well.

The following table shows all radicals, their standard meaning when it comes to characters of simplified origins, as well as possible historical interpretations.

# Character Standard meaning Possible interpretations

Traditional

Traditional Ukilen has less characters, mostly only the modern radicals, but is much more complex in how it conveys the same ideas that modern Ukilen conveys. Traditional Ukilen is debated to be the original form of the modern characters, but it is argued that they actually evolved from an even earlier version of the writing system due to certain quirks specific to the writing system that are shared with earlier mostly undeciphered Ukilen writing systems. Traditional Ukilen nowadays is only used in Kzmr, but historically it was used in Jkawi and Baphia Minor as well.
