Learn Shavian/Vowels/2

The next two letters you will learn are called egg and age. They look like this

Name	Letter
egg	𐑧
age	𐑱

Say "egg" and "age" aloud. Focus on the vowel sounds. Notice that age sounds a bit more top-heavy, almost like it is rolling over the top part of a roller coaster.

Now notice how the letter age shows that top-rolling-ness in the letter itself, as compared to egg.
