May be at some point we will be able to locate the Tartarian alphabet, and examples of their writing. I do not mean the
Tatar Language mentioned on wikipedia. The language I'm talking about does appear to be omitted from the narrative compliant history.
Initially, courtesy of
@anotherlayer in
this thread, it came to our attention that language of Tartaria was still one of the main languages as late as 1849.
Basically, what we learn from the below passage is that there were Opera songs written in Tartarian language. Being neighbored by such languages as Russian, German, English, French, and Italian suggests that Tartarian language was one of the major languages in the World at the time.
Also of interest a particular excerpt from
this 1739 book titled:
The language could be read upside down and backwards... how about that?
Obviously it would be useful to obtain some additional info, and may be locate this weird all-directional alphabet. The description sounds pretty interesting.
