A Lithuanian-specific mythographic writing system. It follows Lithuanian phonology and syllable structure, while its graphemes are abstracted from Lithuanian deities, mythical figures, sacred places, and folklore.

In Brief
Austi Lapeliai is syllable-aware: the base grapheme carries the main syllable, while many final consonants become coda diacritics. Diphthongs and affricates can behave as unit graphemes, and j + vowel forms are graphically independent rather than simple modifications of plain vowels.
How the system thinks
Lithuanian-first rules, syllable-aware spelling, coda diacritics, and the non-featural treatment of j-vowels.
Lesson 2Vowels, diphthongs, and j-forms
Plain, i-onset, and j-onset forms, including unit diphthongs and long-vowel distinctions.
Lesson 3Consonant inventory
Stops, fricatives, affricates, sibilants, nasals, liquids, and the glide inventory.
Lesson 4Mythic grapheme sources
How graphemes draw their visual identity from Lithuanian mythical figures and folkloric associations.
Lesson 5Clusters and coda logic
Native onset candidates, mixed diphthong restrictions, and the role of coda marks.
