It was developed around 405 CE by Mesrop Mashtots, an Armenian linguist and ecclesiastical leader, and originally included 36 letters and now includes 39. The Armenian word for "alphabet" is ' ((:ɑjbubɛn)), named after the first two letters of the Armenian alphabet ' and '. Armenian is written horizontally, left-to-right.〔 == Alphabet == *Listen to the pronunciation of the letters in or in . *Notes: :1.Only used in classical orthography, word-initially and in some compound words. :2.Except in ով /ov/ "who" and ովքեր /ovkʰer/ "those (people)". :3.Iranian Armenians (a subbranch of Eastern Armenians) pronounce this letter as , like in Classical Armenian. :4.In classical orthography, ու and և are considered a digraph, and a ligature.
