It’s also read right to left and doesn’t have written vowels. Everything you see is a consonant.
doesn’t have written vowels
It’s a fun rabbit hole:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abjad
It has spoken vowel sounds, so how do they communicate that through writing?
Google says vowels appear as dots or bars above below or to the left of the letters.
But only for children’s writing. If you look at modern Hebrew you’ll see that there are zero vowels under the consonants.
You just have to know how words sound and add your own vowels.
That is true, but vowels are rarely included in published or written Hebrew. Readers determine the correct word through context, familiarity and grammar rules that can hint at the missing vowel.
Interesting! Thanks for sharing
