2. What writing system does Galactic Basic use?

3. What Terran language is the most spoken? 1. It's the standard language of all members of the Galactic Council. It originates from the Metaforms. 2. Symbol based, like English.

3. English. 1. Ok.

2. Yeah, but what writing system is it? Something new, or just the Latin alphabet?

3. Why? English is only the third most common language after Mandarin and Spanish. It seems very Anglocentric to just make English the most common Earthly language. Also, are there any people left who still speak hebrew? New, of course.

Becuase English just so happens to be the language of science!

If there are, it's not very many at all. If that's the case, I found a nice, sci-fi-looking script for them to use.

What about Arabic? It's the common-tongue of a huge chunk of the world! Or Hindi? Or Spanish? Or Bengali? Or Punjabi? Or Portugese? All of these languages are extremely prevalent in the world!
