The Phrygian script is an an [[w:Alphabet|alphabetic]] writing system developed specifically for the Phrygian language during the Classical Phrygian period mainly from the [[w:Greek alphabet|Greek script]], which it supplanted. It also utilizes some letters of [[w:Aramaic Alphabet|Aramaic]] origin to represent sounds not present in the base Greek alphabet, such as classical /ħ/ ⟨{{vry-times||n}}⟩, /ʕ/ ⟨{{vry-times||v}}⟩, /sˤ/ ⟨{{vry-times||ր}}⟩, and /ʃˤ/ ⟨{{vry-times||ɭ}}⟩. Though ever since its creation, multiple sounds have merged, leaving many redundant etymological letters such as /x/ ⟨{{vry-times||x m n}}⟩, /ɣ/ ⟨{{vry-times||ɼ v}}⟩, and /tˠ/ ⟨{{vry-times||r̃ b}}⟩. | ||
