Last #AsianHeritage month tidbit since it’s ending

The “alphabet ordering” in Japanese is largely due to Sanskrit ordering

> The order of consonants and vowels, and the grid layout, originates in Sanskrit shiksha (śikṣā, Hindu phonetics and phonology), and Brāhmī script, as reflected throughout the Brahmic family of scripts. Specifically, the consonants are ordered from the back to the front of the mouth (velar to labial)
