Talk:Kulitan

Is this still being used?
I'm half-Kapampangan and I have never ever heard of this script before. Is it really still being used in Pampanga? Jcdizon (talk) 13:15, 31 December 2012 (UTC)


 * It is currently used by many Kapampangan cultural enthusiasts, here is a page on facebook for starters, though needless to say many of those enthusiasts are not on facebook, still plenty of people on here. https://www.facebook.com/groups/Kulitkulitan/ --LakanBanwa (talk) 15:41, 14 July 2013 (UTC)

Is this really an alphabet
As with Baybayin and other related script, this is abugida or modified consonants writing system and NOT alphabet? Twentius (talk) 08:07, 14 March 2018 (UTC)

I am skeptical about the origin of the traditional vertical way of writing.
I am an Austronesian linguist with a Ph.D. and was a presenter at the 13-ICAL in Taipei. I listened to the presentation by Michael R. Pangilinan (https://siuala.com/category/kulitan/) and his colleague with the username Nordenx (https://nordenx.blogspot.com/) about their creation of the Kulitan font, a la Japanese calligraphy. What is the difference between the 'historic' and 'traditional' ways of writing? Should the two words refer to the same? I think that Kulitan characters themselves are real and traditional; however, I am very skeptical about their vertical writing style because Mr. Pangilinan is much inclined toward Japanese culture, and it is possible that he spread this style, saying it is 'traditional'. I can never forgive if this is a cultural invention. Your insights are crucial to this scholarly debate. If you have any counterarguments, I invite you to share examples of the vertical writing style in traditional literature. 2404:7A82:3E40:8A00:2578:EB3E:611A:B8E6 (talk) 12:06, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
