- | '''False writing systems''' are artificially constructed [[alphabet]]s or scripts used (sometimes within the context of a [[false document]]) to convey a degree of concealed [[verisimilitude]]. Examples of this include alien dialogue in comic strips and [[graphic novel]]s (such as [[Alan Moore]]'s ''[[The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen]]'', and the ''[[Valérian and Laureline]]'' series). | + | |
- | The script in [[Luigi Serafini]]'s 1981 ''[[Codex Seraphinianus]]'' may be a false writing system; so perhaps may be the text of the [[Voynich manuscript]]. | + | |
