Graphemes

East Asian graphemes, particularly sinograms, often mesmerize Westerners. As a linguist, I tend more towards a very comprehensive grammar as Lojban's than just the graphical features of East Asian languages. Indeed, Westerners and Easterners alike may find mystique in such scripts. Korean, unlike Japanese and Chinese, can make do with just phonograms, as Koreans consign their sinograms to "higher" literature. In retrospect, I should have taken Korean in tandem with Japanese during university.
