Why do so many equate to 0 - that does add up - like at all, is it looking for the equivilents of A M K R in Hebrew Gematria? I doubt it or it would've added something up...

Aye! Just wanted to say [ALOT in retrospect as I type this last]

In Hebrew Gematria AMKR & MAKR equate to 121 last time I checked... not 0 [and it's not just hebrew gematria thats coming up 0 - nope - hebrew sofits, hebrew oridinal, greek isopsephy all equal 0?

Something's off with the claculator & its calculations [depending on which we're talking] FYI.

Also, been wondering could you do isopsephy/gematria with any alphabet that also have numerical significance - say Cyrillic? no idea on the numerical significance...I just like the way the word rolls off the tongue - Cyrillic...

or I WANTED to say Japanese but that's eh boy - far more complicated - combination of logographic kanji script, which was adopted Chinese characters, and syllabic kana. Kana itself consists of a pair of syllabaries: hiragana, used primarily for native or naturalized Japanese words and grammatical elements, and katakana, used primarily for foreign words and names, loanwords, onomatopoeia, scientific names, and sometimes for emphasis. Arabic not sure if thats awhole 'nother can of worms

[like learning they're more languages in Judaism than Hebrew most notably Yiddish, Judaeo-Spanish, Judeo-Arabic, and Judeo-Persian. Not to mention Aramaic [they would've identified it as Ashurit or the Assyrian script]

Either way I Aramaic thought was a dead language ...and also the is ancestor of the modern Arabic?! Well he did try and introduce islam in polytheistic egypt and so he moved up, changed the name to islam from something far less cathchy.

I guess it makes sense Mesopotamia and all...

I assumed the Sumero-Akkadian cuneiform was the oldest language simply because before Sumer we're told is pre-history and the Deluge with the Sumerian God-King throne impressively rode balanced across the ocean on erupting spouts of infinite never-ending water, arisen in out of intricate pots... but just a quick google search shows yeah, Egyptian hieroglyphs "came into existence a little after Sumerian script, and, probably [were], invented under the influence of the latter", and that it is "probable that the general idea of expressing words of a language in writing was brought to Egypt from Sumerian Mesopotamia". There are many instances of Egypt-Mesopotamia relations at the time of the invention of writing, and standard reconstructions of the development of writing generally place the development of the Sumerian proto-cuneiform script before the development of Egyptian hieroglyphs, with the suggestion the former influenced the latter."

And my whole notion of who existed/co-existed when and where at what time periods is BLOWN to smithereens but it's good for you, keeps you re-contextualization of the nature of ... everything.

Even the oldest form of writing I know of Linear B - is somehow itself the syllabic writing of the Mycenaean Greek & Linear A its predecessor we cannot even decipher yet - Linear A is a writing system used by the Minoans (Cretans) from 1800 to 1450 BCE to write the hypothesized [now how does one hypothesize a language, it most certainly existed but written? verbal? anything other than they had to communicate somehow, so yeah - Minoan language haha; a primary script used in palace and religious writings of the Minoan civilization. [okay now if its only hypothesized then how do we know it was used only in such specific circumstances if we can only hypothesize of it's existence???] Boggles the mind....

Yeah this was long as hell and certainly more a journey for me than a reader - but I'm still curious why MORE THAN HALF of the values came to 0 - that has to be an error in the calculator or the attribution of it to the correct symbol/glyph and numeral - otherwise even if we just did english 1-27 a is 1 z is 27 - it still would come out to something you can't add...nothing [perse... haha]

CHEERS MATE! I hope to be using your nifty Isopsephy calculator in the future [and the rest of the functions once their fixed!] I salute you for doing a great job at what seems a nightmarish task at first haha... oh yeha and what other lagnuages would fit like a glove and not be all messy like trying to use Japanese for example haha... Hell enochian could be done so Im sure with enough effort you could make anything work... maybe

Hail Eris! Life in Discordia & much respect to the almighty Bob Dobbs of the church of the subgenius /imout
