Syllabary
Somewhat midway between a
syllabary
and an
alphabet
: you write out consonants, and vowels are "punctuation-like-modifiers".
E.g.: the main
Hindi
script (
devanagari
) and most other
Indian
languages.

Abugida
Unlike
abugida
, these actually make you guess vowels, which are mostly or all not written down in any way. Terrible.
E.g.: the main
Arabic
script.
