The Phoenicians are credited with inventing the first phonetic writing system around 1050 BCE. They created an alphabet with symbols representing sounds, which served as the basis for many other alphabets, including the Greek and Latin scripts. This innovation revolutionized communication by allowing for a more precise and efficient way of recording spoken language.

What is the difference between phonetic and alphabetic writing system?
There is no difference: an alphabet is a kind of phonetic writing, in which the signs stand for sounds. Another kind of phonetic writing is called a syllabary. Both are utterly unlike hieroglyphics and ideograms, which may contain phonetic elements. Some alphabetic languages, English and French, for example, may have changed the way words are pronounced while retaining their old spelling, in which case a truly phonetic spelling would differ from the received spelling (see the International Phonetic Alphabet, or IPA). But that does not make the alphabet any less a phonetic writing system.
