Thank you, guys, for your input. I was just curious. Also, since someone asked where they could learn it, I first saw it in a Silver RavenWolf book, but it's also on Pinterest, Instagram, Twitter, maybe Facebook, and google images has tons of charts of it. The only thing you would have to be worried about is stroke order, since none of those charts tell you from my experience. I just do stroke order similar to Japanese: start at the top, left to right. The Japanese and Chinese do this with their characters because they originally started out with paint brushes and ink and this method greatly reduces any smudging or smearing of the characters.

The Latin alphabet has nothing to do with speaking Latin. The Latin alphabet is the common 26-character alphabet used in languages traceable to Western Europe. Other alphabets include the cyrillic used commonly in Russia, and the eastern character alphabets such as in China and Japan.

Lark, you are quite right. There's a reason why if you put Japanese and Chinese readings in English letters it's called "romaji" and even though you didn't quite say that you gave the reason why. The Roman/Latin alphabet is a huge sort of the basis for the English alphabet and the alphabet for Romance languages (French, Spanish, etc)
