Isopsephy is related to [[Gematria]], the same practice using the [[Hebrew alphabet]], and the ancient number systems of many other peoples (for the [[Arabic alphabet]] version, see [[Abjad numerals]]). A Gematria of Latin-script languages was also popular in [[Europe]] from the [[Middle Ages]] to the [[Renaissance]] and indeed its legacy remains in [[numerology]] and [[Freemasonry|Masonic]] symbolism today [http://www.masoncode.com/Masonry%20and%20Cabala.htm].

Isopsephy (iso significando "igual" e psephos significando "pebble") é a palavra grega para a prática da soma dos valores equivalentes das letras para formar um só número. The early Greeks used pebbles arranged in patterns to learn arithmetic and geometry. A Latin word for "pebbles" is "calculi", the origin of the word "calculate."

A Isopsephy é relacionada à Gematria, a mesma prática porém usando o Alfabeto hebraico, and the ancient number systems of many other peoples (for the Arabic alphabet version, see Abjad numerals). A Gematria of Latin-script languages was also popular in Europe from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance and indeed its legacy remains in numerology and Masonic symbolism today [1].
