    An alphabet is a standardized set of basic written symbols called letters that represent the sounds of spoken languages. Not all writing systems work this way though - some use characters to represent syllables like a syllabary, while logographic systems use characters to represent words or word parts instead of individual sounds.

    An 

    alphabet is a standardized set of basic written symbols or graphemes (called letters) that


    represent the phonemes of certain spoken languages.[2] Not all writing systems represent language
    in this way; in a syllabary, each character represents a syllable, and logographic systems use
    characters to represent words, morphemes, or other semantic units.[3][4]
