The Arabic alphabet is similar to the
Hebrew alphabet, in that it is considered a "defective" script. This refers to the fact that short vowels are not written in most books and periodicals, so one must infer these vowels from context. This situation is ameliorated by the fact that
semitic languages put much of their meaning in consonants and long vowels, which are written.
