The Cree system of writing is known as "Cree Syllabics". The system, created by a missionary named James Evans in 1840, utilizes only nine shapes - each standing for a syllable, while the orientation of the shapes determined the vowel sounds. The Cree Syllabics system was very successful as it could be learned in just a few hours, and was so aesthetically different than the script used by the languages of the colonizing Europeans.
Most non-Ojibway names are not translatable into the Ojibway language. However, many Ojibway speakers will attempt to pronounce common names into Ojibway style. Note that the Ojibway language does not contain the following consonants in the language: f, l, r, and v. Ojibway syllabics can be used to spell out the name, however the missing consontants are usually borrowed from similar languages that use syllabics (i.e. Cree).
There Is No Language Called Cree.
They were invented by James Evans in the mid 1800's. He developed a similar system for Ojibwe first, and then adapted it for Cree at Norway House in northern Manitoba. It has since been adapted for other languages, most notably Inuktitut.
