Latin scriptThe Latin script, also known as the Roman script, is an alphabetic writing system based on the letters of the classical Latin alphabet, derived from a form of the Greek alphabet which was in use in the ancient Greek city of Cumae, in southern Italy (Magna Graecia).

Several Latin-script alphabets exist, which differ in graphemes, collation and phonetic values from the classical Latin alphabet.
