Wikipedia

  1. syllabic script

    In the linguistic study of written languages, a syllabary is a set of written symbols that represent the syllables or (more frequently) moras which make up words. A symbol in a syllabary, called a syllabogram, typically represents an (optional) consonant sound (simple onset) followed by a vowel sound (nucleus)—that is, a CV or V syllable—but other phonographic mappings, such as CVC, CV- tone, and C (normally nasals at the end of syllables), are also found in syllabaries.

  1. syllabic script

    A syllabic script refers to a system of writing where each symbol or character corresponds to a specific syllable rather than individual sounds or letters. In this form, each symbol represents a combination of consonant and vowel sounds, making it more complex than an alphabet, but less so than a logographic script where each symbol represents an entire word or idea.
