Spell check for the name Lydia please?
I had someone do my name in gallifreyan years back and was wondering if anyone could spell check it for me?
01:49 UTC
Spell check if you please?
...you see, this is why you don't "be good" and throw things away. Cause the second I say "what am I gonna use a compass for?" I decide to try my hand at Gallifreyan. A spell-check would be appreciated... And I'm accepting compass donations.

OK, I need a comfort tattoo
Please and thank you. My DMs are open. ❤️
I'm hoping to get as full a sentence as possible, to combine all my fandoms :
Let chaos reign, because it's funnier in Enochian, which is a thought that's gonna fester
If it isn't going to make sense, or if you recognize the fandoms, I'm open to any and all suggestions, too.

A bit messy unfortunately, paper's not the best. Tips and suggestions?

Has anyone tried to translate the TARDIS manual pages from "Hell Bent"?
In "Hell Bent," there's a brief glimpse of pages from Clara & Ashildr's TARDIS manual. I'm wondering if anyone has taken a stab at translating — did the production use a recognized version of Gallfireyan?
Surprisingly, I can't find anything about this online. Not even in tardis.wiki. In fact, I can find only 3 screen caps are this book anywhere online:
TheDoctorWhoSite.co.uk (about 80% down the page)
The Russian version of tardis.fandom.com
A 3-year-old Twitter post with 59 likes
...and I can't find any discussion of it anywhere (not even here!).
Is the freeze-frame too low-res to read? Is it just immediately obvious to those who know popular Gallifreyan alphabets that it's not translatable? I'm guessing the latter, because the production probably isn't following fan convention.
Just curious.

spellcheck please!
designing a helmet for a worldwide event and thought "eh, why not put something fun on there?" it says what they;re supposed to say on the image but just in case the dark pink text is supposed to say "Worldwide" and the light yellow is meant to say "2025"

Best tool for translation?
I’ve used a few resources to get a translation of the phrase “don’t be lasagna” and I get multiple different results. I’m not good at doing translations myself so I need some help but I’m not sure of the best resources to look at.
Thank you!

Hi! I've been obsessed with learning to read/write gallifreyan for the past few months and I want to show off my biggest project yet. If anyone sees any spelling mistakes or has any style suggestions, I'd love to hear them!!
