An abjad catches only the consonants of a language | An abjad catches only the consonants of a language. You might wonder how is that even useful? How would one tell apart words like "bet" "bat" "bit" if all you see is "bt"? The answer is simply that in european languages the vowels play a much more important role. In semitic languages the vowels role is lesser and consonants are more important, but even if it does play an important role you can still use it. "I bt 100 dllrs tht y cn't d tht", if you check that you might still be able to read what it says, context does everything! | ||
