Abstract
The twelve lettered flat faces lie on a regular dodecahedron; the rounded corners lie on a concentric sphere. The dice are for use in sets of eleven, the whole 132 faces providing for a distribution of letters in reasonable accordance with frequency of use in a given language. Thus different sets are envisaged for French, English and other languages. Special provision is made for vowels and other frequently used letters by having one of each on each dice, and by having one face carrying a special symbol as a letter substituents.
