Use of “grapheme” vs. some other word?
editSince many of the logograms are compound, is “grapheme” too specific a word to use? E.g.: “The player is aided by a notebook that contains the list of graphemes the player has encountered up to that point,” – when two different logograms/words feature shared elements, I would expect “grapheme” to refer to each component of the logogram, not the compound logogram as a whole, but the character does not write down logogram parts in this way; only complete logograms. For example, the character does not write down determinatives on their own, only as they appear in complete logograms. But I'm no linguist and have zero standing to be making decisions of this nature. I welcome feedback from somebody with actual expertise. :)
