Inside a laboratory in the West Lainer Mage Tower.
Gallo continued exploring ways to optimize and improve Ouse Magical Script.
From the phonetic symbols of the Ous Alphabet to Ouse Magical Script, from everyday usage to magical structures, he had followed the principles of linguistics to create an almost complete set of linguistic rules.
Function words, prepositions, verbs, measure words, tenses, and grammatical gender...
Then inversion, questions, negation, and so on.

"In just one year, the vocabulary of Ouse Magical Script and its corresponding rules have already become this complicated. There are particularly serious flaws in how names designate things...

Ancient people had only needed to record basic natural objects and phenomena such as the sky, earth, sun, moon, wind, rain, thunder, lightning, water, fire, meat, and stone. Primitive language had been entirely sufficient.
But as practical production and labor developed, the demands on language and writing's ability to carry information would grow ever greater.
The differences in efficiency between languages would quickly become apparent.
