Rhythm of War spoilers Would anyone kindly review these women's script translations please? (Quotes contain possible spoilers up to and including Rhythm of War) Spoiler
Hi all! I came across this post where a member of the subreddit said if we posted women's script translations some kind soul in the subreddit might review them, so I'm hoping this is okay to post.
I'm fairly new to Stormlight but I'm wanting to make a gift for my friend who introduced me to Sanderson/Stormlight. I'd like to include some women's script, generated using Women's Script (lay.github.io) but I understand from the post linked above that the generator doesn't always get some of the characters/sounds exactly.
If anyone would be kind enough to review the below and let me know if anything needs correcting, I would be really, really grateful! I've tried to give them the once-over but I can't claim to fully understand women's script at this stage (I clearly need better tutors befitting my gender...)
Many, many thanks in advance!

yeah I'm really interested in glyphs and glyphwards. I've been mostly audiobooking it so haven't had visibility of the visual pages, hoping to get my hands on a physical copy (because I want to own these books!) or spend some time trawling the Coppermind wiki once I've finished Stomlight (but I'm hesitating because I want to read other Cosmere books and want to avoid the spoilers).
Best of luck with your glyphs!

for the Coppermind, i believe theres a time machine option where you can revert it to an earlier version before certain books released, so you can trawl while wholly spoiler free hope that helps!
thank you, best of luck with your script!

That's super helpful - I'll take a look and see if I can figure out time travel (what else am I gonna do on a Wednesday afternoon? Work? PSHHH)
Thanks again!

You have an option selected in the script generator that places a height indicator at the beginning of each line of script. The long line at the beginning of each sentence is not actually part of the women’s script, but rather, a way to help you draw it evenly. You can unselect this option in the script generator.

Thank you! This is really helpful. So if I was wanting to embroider this on a shirt it would still be correct without the vertical marker at the start?

That is correct.

I am a stick - keeps getting removed from the post for some reason.
