Ladino Alphabet

The Hebrew alphabet is over 2200 years old. It is derived from Aramaic and is used for both ancient Hebrew (the language of Judaism) and the modern language of Israel, Ivrit.

Versions of this alphabet are used for languages spoken by Jews in Central Europe (Yiddish) and Asia (Ladino).
