This is equivalent to the Roman numerals that continue to be utilized in English today. The practice of estimating the numerically equal amount of words and phrases by having to add up the figures linked with every letter is known as gematria. Gematria basically relates to calculation in Hebrew, whereas Isopsephy is equal to Greek. Gematrists use different methods to calculate the numerological value of letters. The value of a word or phrase is the sum of the numerology values of each letter in the word or phrase. Pythagorean English Gematria is based on a method called “Reduction.” All numbers are reduced to single digits. Letters J-Z  have double digit values and need to be reduced. For example, Z is 26 according to the simple English Gematria chart above. According to Pythagorean Gematria, Z will be equal to 8 (2+6) this is the sum of its digits.
