162. Vini Mini

I have been reading a lot recently on the earliest forms of writings and pictograms starting from 3500 BC, when the process of recording world history started in a systematic manner. Great revelations through drawings on the walls, clay tablets and more of the Mesopotamian, Egyptian, Indus Valley and Shang Civilizations. Some of these writings could be deciphered and some could not. However, the earliest writings are interesting in reference to the present day context. 

Why I say this is because as I was reading this, my mind flew back to school when a couple of our friends started the Vini Mini language and glory of all glories, which even had original alphabets.We talked amongst ourselves in this secret language, which was Greek for others and Vini Mini for us. We even wrote letters to each other in fairly long sentences decipherable only by us. What fun we had as we behaved like 'secret-agents-on-a-mission-to-save-the-world'! Well almost! 


The Vini Mini alphabets which we created from the English alphabets.
