Writing
Writing is the representation of language through a system of symbols, enabling communication and the preservation of information. It encompasses various forms, including alphabetic, logographic, and syllabic systems. Writing has evolved over millennia, from ancient scripts like cuneiform and hieroglyphics to modern alphabets. It serves multiple purposes, such as storytelling, record-keeping, and artistic expression. The development of writing has significantly influenced human civilization, facilitating the spread of knowledge and culture.
