Who invented the Chinese alphabet?
Chinese doesn't have an alphabet, that is, a set of letters each of which represents a set of sounds. Instead, it has "characters", i.e., a set of symbols each of which represents a word or idea. The advantage of this is that the same character is used to represent the same word in various different Chinese dialects (such as Mandarin), even though the pronunciations in the these dialects may be different and therefore mutually unintelligible. Obviously no single person invented the characters -- they must have gradually developed over a period. By the way, Chinese is often written by transliterating the characters into Roman letters; the commonest system for doing this is called "pin-yin". This makes the language easier and cheaper to type or print.
