Creating our own alphabet was a challenging yet fun process. The hardest part in my opinion was developing the basic traits of our letters. In our alphabet we tried to use a bit of a mix of symbols and letters to distinguish our alphabet. Our alphabet was majority based on letter forms. Each letter somewhat resembled the older alphabets we had seen in class.

As time went on it was almost as if alphabets evolved over time. I’m not saying this applies for all types of language but if you go back and look at the older languages and their alphabets you can see some similarities some which may be very strong while some may be lesser. As language developed I think they started to further away from picture based because language was becoming so complicated that it could be not be dipicted with pictures anymore. Language has came so far since it first started developing in my personal opinion. For the most part in my beliefs that we quit using pictures to communicate and such was the vastness of our language would be to hard to translate with pictures. Or another problem someone may experience is the amount of time is takes to draw a picture even though they may be simple. As people I have found out that’s it’s just easier to communicate with letters and words than it may be drawing something out.
