There have been 46 separate and original alphabets and writing systems either phonetic or hieroglyphic. Each has evolved into countless other languages, and writing processes.   Our Greek/Latin alphabet owes nothing to Arabic.  Even the Aztec complex pictographs are actually phonetic. Some of the alphabets have become extinct with no surviving use, as Celtic Runes, and Egyptian Hieroglyphs. From Saturn's stupidly comes a search for truth.
