A shared space for the Bliss language

Blissymbolics is a symbolic language that represents meaning rather than words. It was created by Charles K. Bliss and has been used primarily as a communication tool for people with speech and language difficulties.

Blissary is a home for both the established BCI vocabulary and a more exploratory, compositionally consistent view of the language. Whether you work with Bliss in AAC settings, study it as a language system, or are just discovering it for the first time, you are welcome here.
