Hello Heikki,

I used the opposite approach some time ago: I assumed the EVA might actually 
represent the individual strokes which compose latin letters. (Ie while 
latin "l" and "o" as single-stroke letters would be "elementary", "d" and 
"b" would be composed of "l" and "o". "d" would thus be written in two EVA 
letters, one representing "o" and one for "d".)

Unfortunately, I couldn't come up with anything comprehensible. But perhaps 
the approach can give you some kind of inspiration.

Cheers,

	Elmar
