>The Romans modified and adapted the Etruscan alphabet, which was borrowed from the Greek, who borrowed it from the Phoenicians , etc. to their own language. Also as I recall those are each unrelated languages so the letter/sound congruity dropped markedly at each transition. (I'm not sure if that's the correct way to put it. Also I tried to sound really smart in writing it.) |
