Writing Systems History Grapheme List of Written Systems Types Alphabet Abjad (Impure Abjad) Abugida Syllabary Semi-Complex Logography Logophonic (Logosyllabary, Logoconsonantal) Short Featural Related Topics Pictogram Ideogram vte In Linguistic Study of Written Languages, sillabarium is a set of written symbols that are a set of written symbols that are a symbol in the syllabic program, usually a (optional) consonant sound (simple beginning), followed by a vowel sound (core), i.e. a CV or V syllable, but other phonographic maps such as CVC, CV-tone and C (usually nasal at the end of syllables) are also in the syllables. Types Each syllable (σ) branch in consonant beginnings (i) and rime (i) which is divided into kernels (yap.) and code (yap.), non-/over-segmental parameters such as tone (I) affect the syllable of the whole writing system using a syllable completed when it covers all syllables in the appropriate conversational language, without requiring complex reographic/graphemic rules like implicit codes (⟨C1V⟩ ⇒/C1VC2/) quiet vowels (⟨C1V1-C2V2⟩ ⇒/C1V1C2/) or echo vowels (⟨C1V1-C2V1⟩ ⇒/). This is poorly matched by fine spelling in alphabetical writing systems. (quote is necessary) True syllables are those that cover all parts of the syllable, i.e. the original beginning, the media core and the final code, but from the beginning and the code are optional, at least in some languages, there are middle (core), the beginning (beginning of the core), the end (core code) and the full (beginning of the core) true sillabograms. Most syllables have only one or two types of syllables and form other syllables according to graphemic rules. Sillagrams, therefore, syllabic, are pure, analytical or arbitrary if they do not have graphic similarities that correspond to phonical similarities, for example, the ka symbol does not resemble either the predictable ki symbol or the symbol a. Otherwise they are synthetic if they vary depending on the beginning, rime, core or codes, or systematic if they vary from all of them. Some scientists, such as Daniels, reserve a generic term for analytical syllables and invent other terms (abugida, abjad) if necessary. Some systems ensure that the katakana language is transformed. Languages using syllabaria often begin as simplified logograms, as shown here with the Japanese katakana writing system. On the left is a modern letter, with its original Chinese character form on the right. A multilingual stop sign using the Latin alphabet and syllabic Cherokee, Tahlequah, Oklahoma languages that use syllabic writing include Cherokee, Wai, Yi languages of East Asia, English Creole Ndyuka, Xiannan Tuhua, and and Mycenaean (Linear B). In addition, the uncoded Cretan Linear A is also considered some syllable scenario, although this has not been proven. Chinese hieroglyphics, cuneiform font used for Sumerian, Akkadian and other languages, and the former Mayan script are mostly syllabic in nature, although based on logograms. Therefore, they are sometimes called logoslabive. Modern Japanese uses two syllables together called kana (in addition to non-syllable kanji and romaji systems), namely hiragan and katakana, which have been developed by about 700. Because Japanese uses mostly cv (vowel) syllables, the syllable is good for writing a language. As in many syllables, vowels and final consonants are written by separate glyphs, so that both atta and kite are written by three cans: あった (a-t-ta) and かいた (ka-i-ta). Therefore, it is sometimes called the moraic writing system. Languages that use syllables today tend to have simple phonotaxes, with a preponderance of monomoral (CV) syllables. For example, the modern Yi script is used to write languages that do not have diphthongs or syllables; Unusual among syllables, there is a separate glyph for each consonant-vowel-tone combination (CVT) in the language (except for one tone, which is indicated with diacritic). Few syllables have glyphs for syllables that are not monomoral, and those that once simplified over time to eliminate this complexity. For example, the Wai syg originally had separate glyphs for syllables ending in code (doŋ), long vowel (sic), or diphthong (bai), although there were not enough glyphs to distinguish all resume combinations (some differences were ignored). The modern script has been expanded to cover the entire swamp, but at the same time comes down to the exclusion of all other syllables. Bimor syllables are now written in two letters, as in Japanese: diphthongs are written with V or HV glyphs, and the nasal code is written by a glyph for ŋ, which can form its own syllable in Vai. In Linear B, which was used to trankirate Mycenaean Greek, a language with complex syllables, complex consonants of beginnings were either written with two glyphs or simplified to one, while codes are usually ignored, such as ko-no-su for Kn'sos, pe-ma for σπέρμα sperma. The syllabic Cherokee typically uses mannequins for consonant codes, but also has a segmented graph for /s/, which can be used as both codes and the original /sC/consonant cluster. Unlike abugidas languages of India and Southeast Asia, as well as Ethiopian Semitic languages, have a type of alphabet called abugida or alphasyllabary. In these scenarios, unlike pure syllables, syllables, starting with the same consonants, tend to be expressed with graphems based on the usual Elements. Typically, each symbol representing the syllable consists of several elements that denote the individual sounds of that syllable. In the 19th century, these systems were called syllables, a term that was preserved in the name of Canadian Aboriginal syllables (also Abugid). In a true syllable there may be graphic similarities between symbols that share a common consonant or vowel sound, but this is not systematic or at all regular. For example, the symbols for 'ke', 'ka' and 'ko' in Japanese hiragana have no resemblance to indicate their overall K sound (this is: け, か and こ). Compare this to Devanagari, abugida, where the characters for 'ke', 'ka' and 'ko' are के , का and को respectively, with क pointing to their common sound k. Comparison with the Latin Alphabet of English, along with many other Indo-European languages such as German and Russian, makes it difficult to create. A pure syllable based on english will require a separate glyph for each possible syllable. Thus, it will take separate symbols for the bag, asking, large, swamp, error, bad, bed, bet, bod, bud, bidet, bode, etc. Since English has well over 10,000 different possibilities for individual syllables, syllabary would be poorly suited to represent English. However, such clean systems are rare. The workaround to this problem, common to several syllables around the world (including English loanwords in Japanese), is to write an echo vowel as if the syllable codes were a second syllable: ba-gu for bag, etc. Another common approach is to simply ignore the code so that the bag will be written ba. This obviously wouldn't work well in English, but it was done in Mycenaean Greek when the root word was two or three syllables long and the syllable of the code was a weak consonant such as n or s (example: χρυσός chrysos written as ku-ru-su).

While writing and speech are useful in sending messages, writing is also different as a reliable form of information storage and transmission. Writing systems require a common understanding between writers and readers of the meaning of the character sets that make up the script. Writing is usually written into durable environments such as paper or electronic storage, although non-durable methods can also be used, such as writing on a computer display, on a board, in sand, or skywriting. Reading a text can be achieved exclusively in the mind as an internal process, or expressed orally. Letter systems can be placed in broad categories such as alphabets, syllables, or logos, although any particular system may have attributes of more than one category. In the alphabetical category, the standard set of letters represents the sounds of speech. In the syllable, each character correlates with a syllable or a mura. In logography, each symbol is a semantic device, such as a word or a morphema. Abjads differ from alphabets in that vowels are not specified, and in abugidas or alphasyllabaries each symbol is a consonant-vowel pairing. Alphabets typically use a set of less than 100 characters to fully express language, while syllables can have several hundred, and logos can have thousands of characters. Many writing systems also include a special set of characters known as punctuation, which is used to help interpret and help capture nuances and variations in the meaning of messages that are transmitted orally in timing, tone, accent, inflection or intonation.

Features of speech data in general and of Iraqi Arabic data in particular undermine basic assumptions of automated measures that depend on matching system outputs to refer- ence translations. These features are described along with the challenges they present for evaluating machine translation quality using automated metrics. We show that scores for translation into Iraqi Arabic exhibit higher correlations with human judg- ments when they are computed from normalized system outputs and reference trans- lations. Orthographic normalization, lexical normalization, and operations involving light stemming resulted in higher correlations with human judgments. Approved for Public Release: 11-0118.

  • Articles Prestigious Oral Arabic As a Linguistic Model
    ASIAN AND AFRICAN STUDIES, 15, 2006, 1, 3-17 ARTICLES PRESTIGIOUS ORAL ARABIC AS A LINGUISTIC MODEL IN THE INSTRUCTION OF ARABIC Ladislav D ro zd ík Institute of Oriental Studies, Slovak Academy of Sciences, Klemensova 19, 813 64 Bratislava, Slovakia e-mail: [email protected] Prestigious Oral Arabic (POA), the substandard but nevertheless non-colloquial oral medium of the present-day Arab intellectual elite, is an unstable and highly variable linguistic entity. In structural models of very various architecture, POA or what may equal it under various names, begins to appear in the form of teaching devices designed for the instruction of a vaguely defined noncolloquial Modem Arabic. The following inquiry aims at providing a tentative clue to the identification and classification of the main structural features of this unstable linguistic entity in terms of their deviation from the synthetic norm of Standard Arabic and their representation in three different, arbitrarily selected descriptive models designed for teaching purposes. Key words: substandardness, noncolloquialness, diglossic continuum, alphabetic/nonalphabetic indicators, 7 crāZ>-less language, structural/graphical limit, cultural significance, synthetic norm of Standard Arabic. 1. The prominent unifying aspect of the emerging descriptions of the variously conceived and variously named (and even unnamed) prestigious substandard varieties of Arabic is precisely their quality of substandardness inseparably coupled with noncolloquialness. The two attributes, for all their generalness

  • The Vagaries of the Arabo-Persian Script in Ottoman-Turkish Texts
    Jan Schmidt How to write Turkish? The Vagaries of the Arabo-Persian Script in Ottoman-Turkish Texts Abstract: The chapter discusses the development of the orthography of Turkish texts in, what the Turks usually call ‘the old script’, i.e. the Arabo-Persian alphabet in its various forms as it appears in texts handwritten, printed and engraved, which were produced in the Ottoman Empire and the Republic of Turkey before 1928. 1 Turkish (Turkic) texts before the Ottomans Turkish has been written since the 8th century, perhaps even earlier, although no texts have survived from this earlier period. The first surviving texts were written in a ‘runic’ alphabet found on inscriptions in stone and on paper in Central Asia. It was based on the Aramaic alphabet in its Iranian form, possibly together with some letters adapted from the Greek (Hephtalite) alphabet, as Sir Gerard Clauson has suggested (Clauson 1970). This alphabet was in use for two centuries and was mainly employed for monumental inscriptions by local rulers who were part of the Göktürk (‘Celestial Turkish’) confederation. With the rise of the Uighur Khanate (principality) from 742, a second alpha- bet, or rather a group of alphabets, came into existence. This used a cursive script that had its origin in the cursive Sogdian script,1 which, in turn, was based on the Aramaic script. The script was mostly used for Christian, Manichaean and Bud- dhist texts. In 763, Manichaeism, spread by Sogdian preachers, was declared to be the state religion by the Uighur Khan, Bögü Kagan; after the fall of the Uighur Empire in the 840s, the Uighur Turks moved to the oases of eastern Turkestan.

    A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF BIBLE OF BARNABAS AND FOUR TRADITIONAL GOSPELS ABSTRACT THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF Bottor of $()tlo£fo9l)j> IN SUNNi THEOLOGY BY SALILA MAHAMAD Under the Supervision of DR. ABDUL KHALIQUE DEPARTMENT OF SUNNI THEOLOGY ALIGARH MUSLIIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 2009 ABSTRACT A Comparative Study of Bible of Barnabas and Four Traditional Gospels Today, there are three major religions on the earth that believe in the existence of a single God or Creator: Judaism, Christianity and Islam. The followers of the two great religions in the world, that is,Christianity arid Islam, have two books that are supposed to be "the words of God." The-holy book of the" Christians is the Bible, Kitab-i muqaddas (holy book). This book consists of two main parts: Old Testament, namely the Torah (Tawrat) Tlie Nebeim and the Khetubeim, and the New Testament, the Injils (The Gospels Acts of Apostles, the Letters of Disciples, or Missionaries to churches communities. Individuals and the Revelation). The holy book of the Muslims is the Holy Qur'an al-karim. The Bible is the Holy Book of the Jews and the Christians while the Old Testament belong to Jews, the New Testament belong to Christians. However, Christian believe on accept both the Old Testament and New Testament as divine, but the Jews reject the New Testament, which was written and collected after the death of Jesus Christ (PBUH) by Jewish apostles turned to Christianity. In the New Testament, there are Four Traditional Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John) which are generally accepted by Christians but there is one, the Gospel of Barnabas, which is not accepted by most of Christians, because the Gospel of Barnabas was traced after the Four Traditional Gospels and there are many things not same and opposed to the Four Traditional Gospels.
