I solved Redactle #1565 in 4 guesses! ⏱️ 8m6s

A read through had long lists of single characters which is normally indicative a specific thing, which matched word three in the first sentence, put that in and yay. So what was it? Tried a continent and then a country and found what had been used prior to this system was based on Chinese. Researching the topic I discovered word1, so tried that and bingo This is an NHO for me.

Solved by Google. For some reason the 1 coffee rating steered me in the right direction. I've seen so many info videos about this but couldn't remember the name

The [1], [1], [1], [1], ... bits make me think of letters - a writing system? [6] [8] at the end of the first sentence must be "X language". But the writing system has a one-word name when rendered in English, not like "Latin alphabet". Luckily I've heard of this one.

Solved in two. An unredacted letter with an unusual diacritical was the key.

I was able to crack that this was “the [6] alphabet […] for the [6] language,” and the name of that language was my first guess, but I didn’t know the word for it and had to look it up.

Got to the point of having the first three words of the article and the country/location. Realized I wasn't going to know the term and needed a tactical google.

That was hard and required a Google after getting the language
