Monklish letters are a cipher of the [[wp:Latin alphabet|Latin alphabet]] as it is used in English, but with no letter casing. Monklish numbers and punctuation are identical to English, except for exclamation and question marks, which have unique symbols. As such, Monklish text is essentially equivalent to English and, capitalization notwithstanding, text in one writing system can be transcribed to the other directly.
Monklish letters are a cipher of the [[wp:Latin alphabet|Latin alphabet]] as it is used in English, but with no letter casing.

As such, Monklish text is essentially equivalent to English and, capitalization notwithstanding, text in one writing system can be transcribed to the other directly.


Most uses of Monklish in ''Bloons Monkey City'' and ''Bloons TD 6'' appear to transcribe "th" digraphs as simply "T", such as "three" being transcribed as "TREE" and "thorns" being transcribed as "TORNS". Some Monklish writing in ''Bloons TD 6'' appears to be misspelled due to certain glyphs being very similar to each other, such as the Monklish characters for "D" and "U" being the inverse of each other. A lot of Monklish in ''[[Bloons TD Battles 2]]'' uses a horizontally mirrored version of the "P" glyph, making it resemble the "N" glyph.
