It has been kind of made into a movie! The Heptapods [0] in Arrival (2016) written script is a circular shape with each subsection of the shape conveying a different meaning ultimately representing a concept or thought. A quote from the movie: > Like their ship or their bodies, their written language has no forward or backward direction. Linguists call this "nonlinear orthography", which raises the question: Is this how they think? While the movie explores philosophical questions other than "Arrival" and does a quiet beautiful job at that, actual linguistic experts have helped making it and it has been praised for its accuracy. I suggest you give it a go. [0]: https://aliens.fandom.com/wiki/Heptapod |
