Fascinating! As an American I have wondered why we say "Zee" when everyone else (speaking English )says "zed". ?

Really interesting! Thank you!

In Hebrew, camel is “gamal,” and gimel is the letter ג. So, the letter and word are easy to remember: ג for גמל. House is pronounced “bite” or “ba-it,” and the B/V sound is the letter “Beit:” בּ/ב

Thank you for this insightful content.

​@@storylearningThank You for giving us such great information. I really never knew that the letters we use today are older than most languages! Each letter has its own history!

I wish you had subtitles on your very educative videos 😍. As a Turkish i hardly understand some British accented words 😢

As someone who used to share an apartment with two Turkish students in my college days, I never really understood how you guys could basically make one super long word that would mean something that would take like 5 words to say in English. That is, until I learned what the word "agglutinative" means.

​@@bhami There's a family tree of letters: Paleo-Hebrew, aka Phonecian, brought forth to the Greek alphabet and the square script. Greek brought forth to the Latin and Cyrillic alphabet, and the square script brought forth to the Arabic and Syriac alphabet...

Because they write the other way from phoenicians and jews

Alef = bull Bet = house Gimel = camel Daleth = door Heh = Vav Zayn = weopon Heth = yard Teth = wheel Yod = hand Kaf = palm Lamed = wheep Mem = water Nun = fish Samekh = fish Eyn = eye Peh = mouth Tsadik Quf = the little omhole of the needle Resh = head Shin = tooth Tav = note In hebrew "nun" is still used for saying Octopus = tamnun Synanceia = avnun Squid = Dionun Sea bass = Sfamnun

so it is in fact real that W was formed from merging two Us, that has been a made up thing in my head for long

If so many letters flipped are because ancient greek was written in boustrophedon.

so I'm pretty sure 4 of those 5 letters that came from the same root are gonna be F V W and U but idk what the last one is.

Mama says the letter F came from an alligator that got a fig stuck its teeth and got sad.

This is fascinating! (And weird--shoutout to Kronk.) Really fun to see how the letters came about.

Great video as always, just a bit too fast paced. I wanted to stop it several times and think through what I've just learnt.. other than that, thanks 😊

Fun!!

Amazing, I didn't realize the alphabets of the ancient world were that close to each especially to Egyptian. I guess it all came down to poor handwriting or hand carving.

I've heard many times that writting was invented only 4 or 5 times, and then other cultures later adapted what their neighbors used to write for their languages... - so hiragana/katakana were created from hanzi simplified overtime; - Mayan, and the Otomi writting adapted by the Aztecs allegedly evolved (with multiple inbetween steps and diversions from each other) from Olmec writting; - hangul was copied from horyig, which was adapted for the Yuan rulers by the tibetans monks, who adapted a couple north-indian scripts to their language, which all evolved from greek letters from the time of Alexander (or before) and it then links to this video 😅 ...etc.

A more likely reason why Z is removed is because the sound was lost over time. A process called rhotacism occurred when intervocalic /z/ had shifted to /r/, and thus, it was rendered useless.

this actually helped me with CYRILIC, for example with letter P, thanks!!!!!!

"P" comes from the symbol of a house "per"

hola saludos desde latam

Spanish, French, Polish (¿others?) call the 'y' a 'greek i' (igriega, i-grec, etc.), while Portuguese just straight up calls the 'y' an 'upsilon'. Lots of fingers pointing at the Greeks.

i thought the V sound associated with the letter originated in the late latin period

"H" was not a fence it was the symbol of a house "hw.t)

Omega

mistake: The egyptian "r" is a mouth never be "p". "p" is a small rectangle

The new Phoenician alphabet! a ba ga da ha wa za kha tha ya ka la ma na sa gha pa zha qua ra sha ta Zha is pronounced aspirated TS

"d" cones from the symbol of a hand not fish!

"I" comes from aleph the vulture. The hand is the arabic ع

Q=Que, quien etc

If you look at, and write, a lowercase sigma, you can really easily see how that becomes a "S"

"N" comes from "nun" the ancient sea

the "r" comes from the symbol of mouth not of the symbol of head!

"f" comes from the symbol of a snake not Y!

🎉🎉🎉

Could you do a video for each of the letters?

"L was the leg of Osiris"? There was no "l" in the egyptian alphabet, later it became a lion. There are mistakes
