Description: The Phoenician alphabet and its equivalents in four modern alphabets. From left to right: Latin, Greek, Phoenician, Hebrew, Arabic. Legend: In the middle column you'll find the original Phoenician letters, with their modern equivalents in other languages in the same row. Each Phoenician letter has its own color. Arrows also relate letters to their equivalents. Note: in the original, the letters shown in the boxes with gradients had cross-hatching. Greek letters in red are obsolete in the most familiar Classical Ionic form of the Greek alphabet Note that the Arabic letter sin س does not actually derive from Aramaic samekh/semkath ס ; both the Arabic letters س and ش derive from Aramaic shin ש .
