[Trinity] Questions about Trinity MS script
#1
I've got some questions about the script:

- Does r sometimes look like 2 depending on the following vowel? And can this same 2 in isolation be used to mean "and"?
- When this "2" is merged with a "4", what does that mean?
- Does a superscript "u" just mean I have to insert it? For example "2 qtanarus" with a "u" on top of the q.
- I take it that a "9" as the end of a word is a generic ending marker. Is it correct that in the names of plants we can't really be sure what this is? For example, a "Greek" name for a plant is "lamb9". This could be lambis, lambus, lambos, lambes...?
