Question 109

Which description correctly connects the Greek alphabet to an earlier script and to vowel notation?

  1. It adapted Phoenician letters and represented vowels explicitly.Bonne réponse
  2. It arose directly from hieroglyphs without borrowing.
  3. It borrowed Latin letters and omitted consonants.
  4. It used no written signs for vowel sounds.

Explication

Greek writers adapted signs from the Phoenician script and assigned dedicated letters to vowel sounds. Claiming a wholly independent creation from hieroglyphs ignores that borrowing, while saying vowels were omitted misses a major adaptation.
