, one
character
implies one
syllable in a syllable pattern. Second is Abjad that includes Arabic;furthermore
, it is the most preceding style as well. Another is Abjuda, used in Indian Devanagari: each character
indicates a consonant plus vowel. Finally

character
stands for a sound either vowel or consonant,yet, the link between spelling and pronunciation is not accurate like in English.

character
represents one
word more, for example
, chinese. However
, it should be noted that it can also
be used by languages which are diverse in oral expression.
