Þeurilá (Þeurilá: lorigzI), is the script used in Þunan Qumreá to write Śácamþaśá, and, less frequently and with significant modifications, Saxish. It is a syllabary script written from right to left, with unique characters for coda consonants.
Etymology
The name Þeurilá comes from Proto-Sojåkaromåthan ‘thiłu lårarii loopu’ which roughly means ‘the result of leaf writing’. This name originated because the ancestor of Þeurilá, the Khaajokhiilo logography, was etched into stone, and thus consisted entirely of straight lines and sharp edges. When the softer material of compressed palm leaves became common for the now-syllabary, the script changed form to a much more curvy, simplified script, hence the name.
