What is an "alphabet"?
An alphabet is a set of letters or symbols that represent the basic sounds of a language. Each letter typically corresponds to a specific phoneme, allowing for the formation of words and sentences. Alphabets are usually arranged in a fixed order and can vary in the number of letters they contain; for example, the English alphabet has 26 letters, while the Greek alphabet has 24. Alphabets are significant for their role in writing and literacy, as they provide a standardized system for representing spoken language in written form.
