Smiling at August and the Hufflepuff that set beside him, Kurumi also nodded her head in Gideon's direction as the lesson began. Sitting back for a bit, Kurumi listened as others answered and then raised her hand to try and add a little to the discussion. The main bits had already been said, so there really wasn't too much to add.

"The two methods are the Agrippan method and the Chaldean method. As everyone has already said, the major distinction between the two is the use of the number 9. Both are also based on the Latin alphabet, although the Arippan is based on an older version of it, and the Chaldean method partially equates Latin letters with letters of the Hebrew alphabet." Just, you know, a little random fact to add to the pot. "So, in a sense, the numbers do not line up as neatly as we are used to in the Agrippan method. For example, W, which as a value of 6 in the Chaldean method, is not immediately followed by X. Instead, it's value isn't 7 but 6."

Which is why she liked the Agrippan method a little better. It flowed easier and you didn't have to remember exceptions.
