What do Mediterranean Europe letters look like?

Mediterranean Europe has three alphabets: Latin, Cyrillic, and Greek. Latin-Mediterranean languages include: Spanish French Italian Maltese Albanian Turkish Slovene Croatian Bosnian* Montenegrin* - English uses the Latin alphabet, so this is what Latin letters look like. However, alphabets differ between languages and some letters can be added or removed. For example, Ch and Rr are considered letters in the alphabet in some languages. Cyrillic-Mediterranean languages include: Bosnian* Montenegrin* - The Cyrillic alphabet was created in 10th century Bulgaria and was widely adopted throughout Eastern Europe. Some other languages that use the Cyrillic alphabet are Russian, Ukrainian, Belarusian, and Bulgarian. Look at the link below to read about and see the Cyrillic alphabet. Greek-Mediterranean languages include: Greek - Greek is the only language to use the Greek alphabet. The Greek alphabet was created in the 8th century BCE. Because of the importance of the Greek language and alphabet, you can still see signs of it being used all throughout the Western World today. For example, fraternities and sorotities use Greek letters as their names (for example, Alpha Delta Omega [A Δ Ω]). Look at the link below to read about and see the Greek alphabet. * - Bosnian and Montenegrin are used in wide levels in both the Latin and Cyrillic alphabet. Alphabets can be converted into other alphabets. For example, you can write the English language (Latin alphabet) in the Greek alphabet, or the Greek language (Greek alphabet) in the Latin alphabet.


What does the latin alphabet look like?

The Latin alphabet IS the same as the English alphabet, with the exception of a few letters. The Modern Latin Alphabet is exactly the same as the English Alphabet. The Classic Latin alphabet is missing J, U, and W. There were no lower case letters at first, and K, Y and Z used only for writing words of Greek origin. The letters J, U and W were added to the alphabet at a later stage to write languages other than Latin. J is a variant of I, U is a variant of V, and W was introduced as a 'double-v' to make a distinction between the sounds we know as 'v' and 'w' which was unnecessary in Latin.
