RE: A gaudy mural painting for our little Kobold
WOW! Very wonderful artworks for your little princess’ room! I do really love every details that you did in the paintings and I always admire you that you did them from all of your love to your “little princess”! I can feel these from your paintings and your wordings, i.e. “the most important thing is: our little one loves it”, etc. You are Super Mom, as I always said, indeed!
The mural painting is very excellent with the colorful rainbow, bright color of clouds, magnificent sun, gorgeous flowers, beautiful bee and cute ladybugs, etc. And the most attractive one is the name of your little princess, “Jana” in the center of the wall….. Great idea!
I also like the 2 little hedgehogs. They are really cute in wonderful garden with lovely flowers.
I also love your idea on painting the beautiful fairy! And it’s really great meaning that your little princess’ name came from fairy indeed….
It’s great to see the first name of your little princess in javanese old letters and thank you for providing interesting details about the Javanese folks. These similar to us, some Thai words derived from Sanskrit, too. And the letter for “na” in “Jana” in Javanese old letter looks like Thai letter “ณา” and pronounces the same.
Last but not least, I love the masterpieces of your little princess; “the collaboration of the little princess and Mommy”. You both did great artworks together and it is very good idea that you show these on the wall!
Ah! Very wonderful room! I think, your little princess would be much excited staying in this room! (and it's the same feeling as me now!) ;)
Yes, I think there must be many similar letters between Tha alphabets and Javanese, since they derived from the same language and culture. Javanese were once strong buddhist too in the past.
Btw... the more older Javanese language that is partly used in a traditional opera show or puppet show has actually also different sets of alphabet, I just never learnt that alphabet. However from a short look they have more similarity to Thai alphabet set.
That's some example of traditional alphabet from different tribes in Indonesia. There are still some more, since Indonesia has hundreds of tribes. This picture was uploaded in Facebook by Komunitas Aksara Sunda Bogor.
Yeah! I'm glad to hear that! And these traditional alphabet from different tribes in Indonesia are very interesting. From the list, the alphabets that are most similar to old Thai alphabets are the ones from Jawa, Bali and NTB. Thanks so much for sharing. ;)
