What is the "Greek alphabet"?

The Greek alphabet is a writing system used for the Greek language, consisting of 24 letters. It was developed around the 8th century BCE and is written from left to right. The alphabet includes both uppercase and lowercase forms of letters. Each letter represents a specific sound, and the Greek alphabet introduced vowels as separate letters, which was a significant development compared to earlier scripts. For example, the word "ἀγάπη" (agape), meaning "love," showcases both consonants and vowels in its spelling. The Greek alphabet is significant in the fields of linguistics, history, and science, as it has influenced many other writing systems, including the Latin alphabet, and is still used today in modern Greek.
