Yes. The vast majority of languages that have alphabets use the Roman alphabet, sometimes with a few additional characters. The origin of the language isn't very relevant. For example, until well into the 1850s Romanian, though derived mainly from Latin, was written in the Cyrillic alphabet. The other main alphabets in use are: * Cyrillic (Russian, Ukrainian, Bulgarian) * Greek * Hebrew * Arabic
