Alphabet - Hawak حاواک

  • The Liwadi alphabet (hawak حاواک) has 31 graphemes ( ۉگ) which represent 29 phonemes (nihoŋ نىحۉگ).
  • As the Liwadis had no writing when discovered by the space travelers, a written alphabet was created by the anthropologists who were on the voyage. As they were Egyptian, they used the Arabic alphabet. I have transliterated them into the Latin alphabet for this study.
  • The 19 fundamental consonants are p, b, t, d, k, g, s, z, ŋ, w, y, r, ß, h, m, n, l , x and ʻ.
  • When the six stop consonants (k, g , t, d, p, b) precede a consonant, they are lenited to the corresponding fricative. These are indicated by writing the letter with a dot over or under (ḳ, ġ , ṭ, ḍ, ṗ, ḅ).
  • The vowel inventory consists of the six vowels a, e, ė, i, o, and u. By using letters and not diacritics to represent these sounds, the Arabic abjad has been made into an alphabet.
