Rakatan writing system

The Rakatan writing system was the written form of the Rakata, the language spoken by the species of the same name. It was a logographic writing system, where each symbol represented a full word by itself, and was used throughout the Infinite Empire. The various species enslaved by the Rakata adopted the symbols with seemingly no ties to their original usage. Thus, such very different ways of writing as the Aurebesh, the ancient Durese syllabary, the Pre-Corellian alphabet, and the abjad of the Azure Imperium all use symbols from Rakatan sources, rarely in the same ways.
