GD83

In Tahua we first of all can identify Aa2-41 as a glyph which agrees fairly well with the standard of GD83:

Although it is marked.

The closeness to Aa2-42 has convinced me to include also that glyph under GD83, though the reason is far from obvious:

I think the upper right part alludes to Aa2-41 and thereby indirectly to GD83.

In Aa2-6 the 'head' is similar to that in Aa2-41, though reversed, and also this glyph must therefore be classified as GD83 (in addition to GD15, of course):

The bottom part of GD83 (according to the standard) is somewhat similar to some of the GD56 glyphs, as for instance in the right part of Aa4-36:

I have therefore inserted a hyperlink from GD83 to GD56.

In GD61 there are also glyphs which have some resemblance with GD83, e.g. Aa5-31 and Ab3-15, and another hyperlink refers from GD83 to GD61.

  

 

Aruku Kurenga (B)

Just two obvious examples of GD83 are found, the right part of Bb8-4 and Ba6-41 (upside down):

   

Bb5-3 and Bb1-24 makes me think of GD83 (otherwise they clearly belong to GD64):

  

Marginal cases (of GD83) are Ba4-17 and Ba5-15:

  

 

Mamari (C)

The right part of Cb1-12 resembles Ba5-15, which has influenced me to include that glyph - and also Cb5-2 - as yet more marginal cases:

  

Though I have also been influenced by Cb5-3 (following immediately afterwards)

A special case is Ca12-27 (also listed as outside the structure of my catalogue):

 

Échancrée (D)

No glyphs are found.

 

Keiti (E)

Ea2-17 and Ea3-3 (inverted) are definitely examples of GD83:

  

Eb3-26 has a bottom part closely resembling that in the prototype of GD83:

 

The rest of the texts

The texts above have been used as a kind of 'test ground' to see if the definitions could be used.

For the rest of the texts the same principles have been used, although less stringently. The experiences gained have been relied upon rather than what is written above about what characterizes the glyph type.

There may be a few extra glyph added, which would not have been so with a strict application of the written definitions. On the other hand there has been no attempt to ignore glyphs which according to the written definitions ought to belong to the glyph type.
