Words & Sentences

Combine characters into words and sentences using separators.

Word Composition

Use / to combine characters into a word:

js
const builder = new BlissSVGBuilder('B206/B746');
cause + mystery = magic
Input:
B206/B746

Attaching Indicators within Words

Use ; to attach an indicator to a specific character within a word:

magical (character-level indicator attachment)
Input:
B206;B86/B746

Use ;; to attach an indicator to the head (main) character of a word:

magical (word-level indicator attachment)
Input:
B206/B746;;B86
opposite + hot = cold (indicator auto-attached to the second character)
Input:
B486/B378;;B86

The ;; syntax automatically finds the grammatical head and places the indicator there.

Sentence Composition

Use // to separate words:

js
const builder = new BlissSVGBuilder('B513/B10//B431;B81//B414/B167');
