How is î spelled in Verdurian script? The phonology page, under "Diacritics", talks about a "breve or short symbol" which "[i]n the modern language ... only appears on i".
Later on, under "History", subection "Diacritics", it mentions that "the diacritic [for î] is a reversed mole" -- but this "reversed mole" is not found in the list of diacritics under the main section "Diacritics" (nor is there a VERDURIAN COMBINING BREVE [or whatever] in the ConScript Unicode Registry page on Verdurian.
The font Maraille has a character i-breve as well as
I-breve (at positions 180 and 231, respectively). Since it was supposed to map one-to-one to the font Verdurian, I had a look in it and found the following two characters:
for î and
for Î. These do look like a Verdurian i with "a reversed mole" -- but I do not see how they derive from the alphabet listed on the phonology page, nor the CSUR entry. Is there, perhaps, a letter VERDURIAN (SMALL/CAPITAL) LETTER I WITH BREVE missing, or a VERDURIAN COMBINING BREVE? VERDURIAN (SMALL/CAPITAL) LETTER I BREVE is the i brevë which is usually transliterated y, not the î.
Since the spelling of Verdurian is said to be "highly phonemic" (in the section on letterforms) and the distinction between i and î is shown to be phonemic, I would expect this distinction to be representable in the script.
