What Is an Alphabet?
An alphabet is a set of written symbols that represent the sounds of a language. These symbols are called letters. Interestingly, the word "alphabet" originates from the first two letters of the Greek alphabet: alpha and beta.
English Alphabet
The modern English alphabet is derived from the Latin alphabet and consists of 26 letters. Each letter has two forms: uppercase (also known as "capital letters") and lowercase.
Aa | Bb | Cc | Dd |
Ee | Ff | Gg | Hh |
Ii | Jj | Kk | Ll |
Mm | Nn | Oo | Pp |
Rr | Ss | Tt | |
Uu | Vv | Ww | Xx |
Yy | Zz |
Vowels and Consonants
The English alphabet includes:
5 Vowels: A, E, I, O, U
21 Consonants: The remaining letters
Styles of Written Letters
The way letters are written can vary greatly depending on the style or design, which is referred to as a font. Fonts play a crucial role in enhancing the visual appeal of written text, and they are widely used in digital and printed media.
