Alisian/Lessons/Alphabet

Alison is based on the Latin alphabet (also called the Roman alphabet), and there are twenty-six (26) letters. Originally there were twenty-five (25) letters, with 'W' being added by the early-nineteenth century. Unlike the English, who call it a "double-u," the Alisians use "way" (spelled we). Also, "K"(ke) was added in the late-nineteenth century. Before Know and Was were used in foreign words but officially became part of the alphabet in 1919. That lead to the evolution of "chris" from /k/
