Ordinary orthography: An apple sits on the table. It invites hungry mouths to eat it, and eaten it is, by a little boy whose name is Marco.
Special orthography: 一N蘋坐S於一E檯. 其請S餓Y口S TO食其, 而食EN其乃, 以一A小LE男Y誰SE名乃S .MARCO. .
Is anyone else confused or am I alone? I looked up the meanings of orthography and sinograms, but I've got no clue as to what's actually happening.
