Brāhmī: Encyclopedia - Alphabet

An alphabet is a complete standardized set of letters — basic written symbols — each of which roughly represents a phoneme of a spoken language, either as it exists now or as it may have been in the past. There are other systems of writing such as logograms, in which each symbol represents a morpheme, or word, and syllabaries, in which each symbol represents a syllable. The word "alphabet" itself comes from alpha and beta, the first two symbols of the Greek alphabet. There are dozens of alphabets in use today. Most o ...

Brāhmī: Encyclopedia - Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics

Canadian Aboriginal syllabic writing (often "syllabics" for short) is, despite its name, a family of alphabets (specifically, abugidas) used to write a number of Aboriginal Canadian languages of the Algonquian, Athabaskan, and Inuit language families.

Brāhmī: Encyclopedia - Abugida

An abugida, alphasyllabary, or syllabics is a writing system composed of signs (graphemes) denoting consonants with an inherent following vowel, which are consistently modified to indicate other vowels, or, in some cases, the lack of a vowel. Examples include the various scripts of the Brahmic family, Ethiopic Ge’ez, and Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics. A typical abugida is Devanagari. There is no basic sign representing the consonant k; rather the unmodified letter क represents the syllable ka; th ...

Brāhmī: Encyclopedia - Runic alphabet

The Runic alphabets are a set of related alphabets using letters known as runes, formerly used to write Germanic languages, mainly in Scandinavia and the British Isles. In all their varieties they may be considered an ancient writing system of Northern Europe. The Scandinavian version is known as Futhark (derived from its first six letters: 'F', 'U' 'Th', 'A', 'R', and 'K'), and the Anglo-Saxon version as Futhorc (also so named after its first letters). The earliest runic inscriptions date from ca. 150, and the al ...

Brāhmī: Encyclopedia II - Phoenician alphabet - The Alphabet

The original Proto-Sinatic alphabet was pictographic and derived from Egyptian hieroglyphs. It as in use from ca. 1500 BC in the Sinai and the Levant, probably by early West Semitic speakers.

Their alphabet based on sound was wide ...

Brāhmī: Encyclopedia II - History of mathematics - Mathematics in prehistory

Long before the earliest written records, there are drawings that indicate a knowledge of mathematics and of measurement of time based on the stars.

Also prehistoric artifacts discovered in Africa and France, dated between 35000 BC and 20000 BC, indicate early attempts to quantify time Evidence exists that early counting involved women who kept records of their monthly biological ...

Brāhmī: Encyclopedia II - List of writing systems - Segmental scripts

A segmental script has graphemes which represent the phonemes (basic unit of sound) of a language. Note that there need not be (and rarely is) a one-to-one correspondence between the graphemes of the script and the phonemes of a language. A phoneme may be represented only by some combination or string of graphemes, the same phoneme may be represented by more than one distinct grapheme, the same grapheme may stand for more than one phoneme, or some combination of all of the above. Segmental scripts may be further divided according to the types of phonemes they typically record:See also:
