Discourse from tradition to the times

The invention of writing and language and its application in document records can be described as a great pioneering work in the history of human communication and an important symbol of human civilization. On the one hand, it guides human beings from the "barbaric era" to the "civilized era", on the other hand, it truly transcends language communication from the long time and the vast space.

The difference between writing and language is that it is basically a changed language form, transforming auditory symbols into visual symbols, making language tangible and preserved. The appearance of characters is a sign that human beings have entered a civilized society. Words constitute a relatively independent world, and its role has been reflected in history.

Extended data:

Just as language is produced by feeling the need to abstract various events and experiences, words must also be produced by feeling the need to abstract images, and make words and symbols last longer than the fleeting seconds that others can hear.

In order to achieve this goal, obviously many methods have been tried. The habit of winding a rope around your finger to remind yourself to do something can be traced back to thousands of years ago when people tied a rope and counted it.

Because words appear after frequent contact between people, and because many spoken languages have never developed into their own writing languages, there are fewer types of words than spoken languages.
