| Modern Cubrite is written in the Jewish Hebrew square script, in a spelling based on Tiberian Hebrew. (The resulting spelling is not etymological, since Cubrite reflects the original Proto-Canaanite consonants differently.) This is because most earlier works in Modern Cubrite were written by Jews, mainly educational materials in Judaism. | | Modern Cubrite is written in the Latin script. |

| */m n ŋ h l w j ɹ~ʋ Ø/ {{angbr|מ נ ׆ ה ל ו י ר א}}
| |
| */p b f v t⁼ d tʰ θ ð k⁼ g kʰ x/ {{angbr|פ ב פﬞ בﬞ ט ד ת ת◌ﬞ דﬞ ק ג כ כﬞ}}

| ===Vowels===
| |
| *Word final /ə/ is always written ר, regardless of etymology.
| |
| *The five basic vowel symbols, written after the initial consonant:
| |
| **אַ = ''a''
| |
| **יֶ = ''e''
| |
| **י = ''i''
| |
| **אָ = ''o''
| |
| **ו = ''u''
| |
| *The lengthened vowels are written with an alef. If possible the alef is written after the coda; if there is no coda or if there is a post-coda suffix, it is written right after the vowel symbol. For example: ''núm'' 'language' = נומא; ''númr'' 'languages' = נואמר.
| |
| *The L- and R-colored vowels are written with lamed or resh after the vowel symbol.
| |
| *The nasalized vowels are written with ayin after the vowel symbol, but ''ą'' is usually written just with ayin.
