Orthography

The script used to write Nulisü is a syllabary, meaning that it has glyphs representing syllables, specifically ones consisting of consonant-vowel sequences, which are for the most part different in form. However, it represents the sounds as they were at an earlier point in the language's history, and due to sound changes, there is no longer a one-to-one correspondence between glyphs and phonemes. In other words, the script displays a certain degree of orthographic depth.
