Shalum! We are going to share the Alap Bayat Letters and our understanding of them. This isn’t meant to be an authority. We understand there are different ways people write and pronounce the Abarayam. Our focus is on the ancient pictograph & paleo rather than modern. We understand and reserve space for all the ways. We have another post that shares all the resources we love.
With that said, let’s get into it! We hope in the future to be able to make these into flashcards and a book, but for now, we wanted to share.
