Description

Learn alphabets, scripts, symbols, and writing systems from around the world in one app.

World of Alphabets helps you recognize and remember letters through flashcards, quizzes, pronunciation hints, and illustrated character forms. Study modern alphabets like Cyrillic, Hangul, Greek, Arabic, Hebrew, Devanagari, and Thai, or explore ancient and symbolic systems including runes, hieroglyphs, cuneiform, Morse code, Braille, and semaphore.

With 267 writing systems in one place, the app is designed for travelers, language learners, students, linguistics enthusiasts, and anyone curious about how humans represent language visually.

Learn to recognize scripts used across Europe, Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and historical civilizations. Train your memory through repetition and active recall instead of passively reading charts or cheat sheets.

WHAT YOU CAN LEARN

• Modern alphabets and scripts
• Ancient writing systems and historical scripts
• Syllabaries and symbolic systems
• Sign-based and tactile communication systems
• Fictional and constructed alphabets

Examples include:
Cyrillic, Hangul, Hiragana, Katakana, Greek, Arabic, Hebrew, Devanagari, Tamil, Thai, Tibetan, Phoenician, Glagolitic, Elder Futhark, Tengwar, Aurebesh, Egyptian hieroglyphs, Cuneiform, Morse code, Braille, semaphore, and many more.

HOW THE APP WORKS

Each writing system includes its own study set.

Flashcards introduce characters using typed forms together with handwritten, illustrated, or signed variants where available. Quizzes reinforce recognition and recall using the same symbols you just studied.

Many systems also include pronunciation guidance, native names, and sound-focused learning cues to help connect symbols with language.

• Flashcards for letters, symbols, syllables, and signs
• Quizzes for character recognition and memorization
• Typed and illustrated character forms where available
• Pronunciation hints for supported systems
• English and native-script naming support
• Ancient, modern, fictional, tactile, and symbolic systems in one catalog

WHO THIS APP IS FOR

• Polyglots and linguistics enthusiasts

• Curious learners exploring global writing systems

WHY START WITH THE SCRIPT?

Learning letters first makes vocabulary and grammar easier later. Once a writing system becomes familiar, reading words stops feeling like decoding symbols and starts feeling natural.

American Sign Language, Anatolian Hieroglyphs, Arabic, Aramaic, Armenian, Asomtavruli, Aurebesh, Avestan, Avoiuli, Bamum, Bangla, Baybayin, Braille, Canadian Aboriginal syllabics, Cherokee syllabary, Coptic, Cuneiform, Cyrillic, Devanagari, Eastern Syriac, Egyptian hieroglyphs, Elder Futhark, Flag semaphore, Futhorc, Ge'ez, Glagolitic, Gothic, Greek, Hangul, Hebrew, Hiragana, Javanese, Katakana, Khmer, Lao, Latin, Leet, Linear B, Lontara, Lycian, Lydian, Malayalam, Mandaic, Mayan hieroglyphs, Mkhedruli, Mongolian, Morse code, N'Ko, Neo-Tifinagh, Nuskhuri, Ogham, Old Hungarian, Old Italic, Old Turkic, Phoenician, PIqaD, Standard Galactic Alphabet, Tamil, Telugu, Tengwar, Thaana, Thai, Tibetan, Younger Futhark.

Comments on World of Alphabets for Android

★★★★☆ ida alinezhad · Jun 10, 2020

I like the idea, and I'm looking forward to having more from your app; just one problem that bothers me, is the sounds. There are either no sounds for some letters or they're wrong. I see you care, as you corrected your Arabic text, so I'd love to have this problem removed as well:)) Oh and also, there are alphabets similar to Arabic's like Farsi. Could you add them as well? For example, these cool weird-looking letters like ػ or ؿ! And as for the last; Avesta has some other letters too eg 𐬮:L.

★★★★★ Gone 101 · Jun 20, 2020

Hi, can you add the Dunging Alphabet and Script. I want you add it, please. I'm from Malaysia, I really like this app

★★★★★ Narcissooss Narcissooss · Oct 5, 2020

on this is amazing. Perfect if you love languages you should get it! May I ask you add demotic and heriotic and improve Egyptian glyphs

★☆☆☆☆ xian ira dizon plata · Sep 2, 2020

You missed 71 alphabets (all in Wikipedia). I wish that all of those comments in every bad rating/changes that people want will be there, and you need a separate app for numeral systems called "numbers"please 😫

★★☆☆☆ ANWESH PATI · Jul 12, 2020

Please add Odia alphabet. ଓଡ଼ିଆ ଅକ୍ଷର ମଧ୍ୟ ଯୋଡ଼ନ୍ତୁ।

★☆☆☆☆ NIO PENDRAGON · Aug 22, 2020

I know Bangle and Arabic and I can see some words missing here as well as some other languages words I just used Google to see if there are any problems there since I was free., Guess what there was. So I don't suggest this app.
