Synopsis

Excerpt from A Practical Grammar of the Irish Language

The modern Irish Alphabet, or (illll, (1) consists of eighteen letters, and is arranged in the same order as their corresponding letters in the Roman and English Alphabets. But this arrangement must have taken place since the introduction of Christianity, and with it the Latin language; for, in our most ancient grammars, and in the Ogbam, or occult manner of writing, the Consonants follow each Other in regular succession, and the Vowels and Diph thongs immediately after.
