Alphabet - Yawan ىٙوٙن

  • The Liwadi alphabet (yawan ىٙوٙن) has 24 graphemes ( وْگ) which represent 24 sounds (nihoń نی۬حوْگ).
  • 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. For this reason alphabetic order is a modified Maghrebian hijāʾī order. I have transliterated them into the Latin alphabet for this study.
  • The consonants are y, w, n, m, l, ʻ, t, d, s, z, r, h, p, b, k, g and ń.
  • When the stop consonants (t, d, p, b, k, g) precede a consonant, they are lenited to the corresponding fricative. These are indicated by writing the letter with a dot over or under (ṭ, ḍ, ṗ, ḅ, ḳ, ġ).
  • The vowel inventory consists of a, e, ë, i, ï, o, and u.
