From Wikipedia:
A writing system is an organized regular method (typically standardized) of information storage and transfer for the communication of messages (expressing thoughts or ideas) in a language by visually (or possibly tactilely) encoding and decoding (known as writing and reading) with a set of signs or symbols, both known generally as characters (with the set collective referred to as a ‘script’). These characters, often including letters and numbers, are usually recorded onto a durable medium such as paper or electronic storage/display, although non-durable methods may also be used, such as writing in sand or skywriting.
Today there are 10 writing systems classified: Latin, Cyrillic, Hangul, Other alphabets, Arabic (abjad), Other abjads, Devanagari (abugida), Other abugidas, Syllabaries, Chinese characters (logographic). Which one do you belong to?
