Despite its popularity this system sometimes leads to ambiguity. The system is mostly used in social networks, forums, chat rooms, etc.The system is greatly influenced by the common QWERTY-derived Georgian keyboard layout that ties each key to each letter in the alphabet (seven of them: T, W, R, S, J, Z, C with the help of the shift key to make another letter).
Apart from letters for nearly all Georgian phonemes, the alphabet also contains three letters representing Greek phonemes not found in Georgian (ē, ü and ō). Most individual letters seem to be entirely independent designs, with only a few based directly on their Greek counterparts (cf. Greek Φ Θ Χ [pʰ tʰ kʰ], Asomtavruli Ⴔ Ⴇ Ⴕ).
Ani (asomtavruli Ⴀ, nuskhuri ⴀ, mkhedruli ა, mtavruli Ა) is the 1st letter of the three Georgian scripts. [1] In the system of Georgian numerals it has a value of 1. [2] Ani represents an open central unrounded vowel /a/, like the pronunciation of a in "father".
Mani (asomtavruli Ⴋ, nuskhuri ⴋ, mkhedruli მ, mtavruli Მ) is the 13th letter of the three Georgian scripts. [1] In the system of Georgian numerals it has a value of 40. [2] Mani commonly represents the bilabial nasal consonant /m/, like the pronunciation of m in "mine".
