Sigh. I used "Greek" in an analogy because I was hoping that some of the Latin-only folks out there would at least recognize the name of one other script. But how comforable would you really be, if يُُ وِرِ فُرسِد تُ رَِد َن ِنتِرِلي دِففِرِنت سكرِپت، سِمپلي تُ ُندِرستَند ِمَِل َددرِسسِس، َند َ سكرِپت تهَت كُُلد ُنلي پَرتَِللي رِفلِكت تهِ رَِل سپِللِنگ ُف يُُر وُردس?
