Latin script, or Roman script, is an alphabet based on the letters of the classical Latin alphabet. It is used as the standard method of writing in most Western and Central European languages, as well as many languages from other parts of the world. Latin script is the basis for the largest number of alphabets of any writing system and is the most widely adopted writing system in the world (commonly used by about 70% of the world's population). It is also the basis of the International Phonetic Alphabet. The 26 most widespread letters are the letters contained in the ISO basic Latin alphabet.

Latin script
Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SIGTYP Lecture: Maria Ryskina (Part 1)
Title: Informal Romanization across Languages and Scripts
Abstract:
Informal romanization is an idiosyncratic way of typing non-Latin-script languages in Latin alphabet, commonly used in online communication. Although the character substitution choices vary between users, they are typically grounded in shared notions of visual and phonetic similarity between characters. In this talk, I will focus on the task of converting such romanized text into its native orthography and present experimental results for Russian, Arabic, and Kannada, highlighting the differences specific to writing systems. I will also show how similarity-encoding inductive bias helps in the absence of parallel data, present comparative error analysis for unsupervised finite-state and seq2seq models for this task, and ex...

Digraph (orthography)
Digraph (orthography)
A digraph or digram from the Greek: δίς dís, "double" and γράφω gráphō, "to write" is a pair of characters used in the orthography of a language to write either a single phoneme distinct sound, or a sequence of phonemes that does not correspond to the normal values of the two characters combined
Digraphs are often used for phonemes that cannot be represented using a single character, like the English sh in ship and fish In other cases they may be relics from an earlier period of the language when they had a different pronunciation, or represent a distinction which is made only in certain dialects, like English wh They may also be used for purely etymological reasons, like rh in English Digraphs are used in some Romanization schemes, like the zh often used to represent...

Intro to Speaking & Pronunciation: Video 3-Consonant Digraphs and Trigraphs
In the 3rd video of this series, we explore the concept of CONSONANT DIGRAPHS and TRIGRAPHS, which are graphemes that use two or three letters to produce one sound or IPA symbol. (By the end of this video, you will have studied 24 phonemes, leaving 22 phonemes remaining to learn in English.) We also continue our discussion of the origins of English and look at how different languages influenced some of the spelling patterns we see in English.

Latin or Roman script is a set of graphic signs (script) based on the letters of the classical Latin alphabet. This is derived from a form of the Cumaean Greek version of the Greek alphabet used by the Etruscans.
Several Latin-script alphabets exist, which differ in graphemes, collation, and phonetic values from the classical Latin alphabet.
The Latin script is the basis of the International Phonetic Alphabet, and the 26 most widespread letters are the letters contained in the ISO basic Latin alphabet.
Latin script is the basis for the largest number of alphabets of any writing system and is the
most widely adopted writing system in the world (commonly used by about 70 per cent of the world's population). Latin script is used as the standard method of writing in most Western, Central, as well as in some Eastern European languages, as well as in many languages in other parts of the world.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

Title: Informal Romanization across Languages and Scripts
Abstract:
Informal romanization is an idiosyncratic way of typing non-Latin-script languages in Latin alphabet, commonly used in online communication. Although the character substitution choices vary between users, they are typically grounded in shared notions of visual and phonetic similarity between characters. In this talk, I will focus on the task of converting such romanized text into its native orthography and present experimental results for Russian, Arabic, and Kannada, highlighting the differences specific to writing systems. I will also show how similarity-encoding inductive bias helps in the absence of parallel data, present comparative error analysis for unsupervised finite-state and seq2seq models for this task, and explore how the combinations of the two model classes can leverage their different strengths.

Digraph (orthography)
A digraph or digram from the Greek: δίς dís, "double" and γράφω gráphō, "to write" is a pair of characters used in the orthography of a language to write either a single phoneme distinct sound, or a sequence of phonemes that does not correspond to the normal values of the two characters combined
Digraphs are often used for phonemes that cannot be represented using a single character, like the English sh in ship and fish In other cases they may be relics from an earlier period of the language when they had a different pronunciation, or represent a distinction which is made only in certain dialects, like English wh They may also be used for purely etymological reasons, like rh in English Digraphs are used in some Romanization schemes, like the zh often used to represent the Russian letter ж As an alternative to digraphs, orthographies and Romanization schemes sometimes use letters with diacritics, like the Czech š, which has the same function as the English digraph sh

SUMMARY
=======
The Vietnamese alphabet (Vietnamese: chữ Quốc ngữ; literally "national language script") is the modern writing system for the Vietnamese language. It uses the Latin script, based on its employment in the alphabets of Romance languages, in particular the Portuguese alphabet, with some digraphs and the addition of nine accent marks or diacritics – four of them to create additional sounds, and the other five to indicate the tone of each word. The many diacritics, often two on the same vowel, make written Vietnamese easily recognizable.

In the 3rd video of this series, we explore the concept of CONSONANT DIGRAPHS and TRIGRAPHS, which are graphemes that use two or three letters to produce one sound or IPA symbol. (By the end of this video, you will have studied 24 phonemes, leaving 22 phonemes remaining to learn in English.) We also continue our discussion of the origins of English and look at how different languages influenced some of the spelling patterns we see in English.

Laura Kavanagh, Fire Commissioner of the New York City Fire Department, takes a moment to discuss her team's safety mindset.
Laura Kavanagh is the 34th Fire Commissioner of the New York City Fire Department (FDNY), the first woman to hold the position. As Fire Commissioner, Commissioner Kavanagh oversees the day-to-day administration of the agency’s 17,000 employees and $2 billion-dollar budget. Her role includes overseeing critical units such as fleet, facilities, 911 dispatch operations, technology, data analytics, and health services. She has been a key leader in the agency’s response to major incidents, including the Ebola outbreak of 2015 and the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, as well as spearheading key policy initiatives for the department. Commissioner Kavanagh directed the firefighter recruitment campaign to yield the most diverse applicant pool in Department history, including graduating the largest and most diverse group of women in almost three decades. She also paved the way for technology innovation through the development of applications that provide situational awareness to frontline members; created a fire safety program that installed and distributed smoke alarms in the most at-risk neighborhoods; and advocated for first responders at the City, State, and Federal levels.

Latin script, or Roman script, is an alphabet based on the letters of the classical Latin alphabet. It is used as the standard method of writing in most Western and Central European languages, as well as many languages from other parts of the world. Latin script is the basis for the largest number of alphabets of any writing system and is the most widely adopted writing system in the world (commonly used by about 70% of the world's population). It is also the basis of the International Phonetic Alphabet. The 26 most widespread letters are the letters contained in the ISO basic Latin alphabet.

Abstract:
Informal romanization is an idiosyncratic way of typing non-Latin-script languages in Latin alphabet, commonly used in online communication. Although the character substitution choices vary between users, they are typically grounded in shared notions of visual and phonetic similarity between characters. In this talk, I will focus on the task of converting such romanized text into its native orthography and present experimental results for Russian, Arabic, and Kannada, highlighting the differences specific to writing systems.
