Featural writing system. In a featural writing system, the shapes of the symbols (such as letters) are not arbitrary but encode phonological features of the phonemes that they represent. The term featural was introduced by Geoffrey Sampson to describe the Korean alphabet [1] : 120 and Pitman shorthand. [1] : 40.

They are systematically modified to indicate phonetic features. The vowel letters are systematically modified for related sounds, making Hangul a featural writing system. [5] [6] [7] It has been described as a syllabic alphabet as it combines the features of alphabetic and syllabic writing systems.
The Korean alphabet is a featural alphabet written in morpho-syllabic blocks, and was designed for both the Korean and Chinese languages, though the letters specific to Chinese are now obsolete. [4] . Each block consists of at least one consonant letter and one vowel letter.
An alphabet is a standard set of letters written to represent particular sounds in a spoken language. Specifically, letters correspond to phonemes, the categories of sounds that can distinguish one word from another in a given language.
English Featural Alphabet. The English Featural Alphabet was invented by Tham Tan as an alternative way of writing English. The aim was to create an alphabet in which the connections between the sounds are shown in the letter shapes. It an original alphabet consisting of vertical lines and horizontal lines.
