The logo seen on the Squid Sisters' trucks when Callie performs Bomb Rush Blush. Which symbol corresponds to v in lowercase bold script is currently unknown. This script is unique for having both an uppercase and lowercase form. Examples of this script can be seen on the Splatfest Tee, where it is always used to mimic the text for the Splatfest team's name. The bold script is most commonly used to mimic words or to write gibberish, which is why it was assumed to be indecipherable for many years. It appears in both games and is widely used on clothes and weapons. This script resembles the typeface primarily used in Splatoon for dialogue. While most of the time the developers write in English, there are also frequent occurrences where the scripts are used to write romanized Japanese. Lastly, the glyphs that resemble characters from other human languages, such as Japanese or Arabic, are not known to have a proper decipherable form.ДЇocusing on the usage of the deciphered versions of the scripts, there are also different languages in which the scripts may be written. In text where characters are rotated, flipped, or altered in ways that should not exist going off of the cipher, this text is to be considered meaningless. In these situations, characters are rotated, flipped, or even slightly altered to display gibberish text. There are also situations in which scripts are used neither to mimic, nor in its deciphered order, but in a scrambled manner. With few exceptions, any situation in which fictitious letters seem to resemble an English word most likely does not reflect the true meaning of the script, and should not be used as a basis for deciphering work. The twenty-fourth Sunken Scroll from Splatoon 2 is an example of the same script being used in a way that can be deciphered, which does not resemble what the text would look like in the Latin alphabet. In this case, the square script at the bottom is used in a way to mimic the band's name, even though this is not the actual meaning of the letters based on the deciphered version of the script. This method is referred to as 'mimicking'.Д®xample of a script being used to mimic a wordДЄn example would be the cover artwork of Turquoise October from Splatoon.

Another method used is to forgo the actual meaning of the script and pick characters based on how closely they resemble the Latin letters. However, this order is not the only way in which the developers apply the scripts to in-world text. Scripts that are decipherable have each fictitious letter correspond to the letters of the Latin alphabet this is referred to as 'deciphered' when talking about occurrences of these scripts in the game. When characters do appear consistently enough to be considered a script, it has been discovered that many of those are decipherable. This is often the case with company logos for example, where the letters appear to be unique to the logo design and don't show up anywhere else. What we call a script is a consistent set of characters that is used in a sufficient number of places throughout the game, as opposed to characters that are not used recurrently which are not considered a script. Ultimately, it is indecipherable high-pitched gurgling. Speech-wise, Inkling speech does not seem to possess any deeper meaning that would correspond to the species' written language, aside from certain voice clips resembling Japanese or English words at times. Across the games, numerous fictitious scripts used in the game's world can be observed, ranging from unique glyphs to ones resembling human scripts like Japanese, Arabic and Cyrillic.
