One advantage of pictographic and phonetic writing systems is that they can convey meaning across different languages and cultures by using visual symbols or sounds. This can facilitate communication and understanding between diverse groups of people.
A phonetic writing system uses symbols to represent individual sounds (phonemes) in a language, while an alphabetic writing system uses symbols to represent individual speech sounds and their combinations (graphemes). Phonetic systems are more consistent in their representation of sounds, while alphabetic systems typically represent a mix of sounds and grammatical elements.
The three major stages in the development of cuneiform were the pictographic stage (using simple images to represent objects), the transitional stage (combining symbols to represent more complex ideas), and the phonetic stage (assigning symbols to represent syllables or sounds). These stages marked the evolution of cuneiform from a simple pictographic system to a more versatile writing system.
The Phoenicians contributed greatly to written communication by developing the first phonetic alphabet, where each symbol represents a sound. This innovation made writing more accessible and allowed for a more precise and flexible representation of spoken language. The phonetic alphabet served as the foundation for many writing systems that followed.
Humans began writing around 5,000 years ago in ancient Mesopotamia, Egypt, China, and the Indus Valley. The first writing systems were pictographic and evolved into more abstract symbols and alphabets over time.
It is called phonetic spelling. Phonetics is the study of the sounds of human speech, and phonetic spelling involves writing words as they are pronounced.
If you write pictographic, it's more easier to write what you want to say but if you write with the phonetic writing system, it's more easier to understand.
Ancient Egyptian had far more than just two writing systems: Hieratic, Hieroglyphic, Demotic and then Coptic.
It was alphabetic rather than pictographic or syllabic and therefore more accurate and economical.
pictographic
yes they even had genesis
No, There is no connection between the writing of Ancient Egypt and the writing of China.However, both systems have a similarity: they are both picture writing (also callled pictographic or logographic writing), where one symbol represents a whole word or idea instead of a sound.
They invented alphabetic writing to replace pictographic and syllabic writings.
In Japan, there are 3 writing systems:Hiragana - 46 phonetic symbols plus modifiers to create 71 symbolsKatakana - 46 phonetic symbols plus modifiers to create 71 symbolsKanji - officially 2,136 (but in actuality, there are more than 50,000)

The correct spelling of the term for ancient writing symbols is hieroglyphics.
The Pictographic writing used in Ancient Egypt is known as Hieroglyphics. They were used for religious purposes.
