Writing
Writing is the process of recording language using symbols, such as letters or characters, to communicate ideas, information, or stories. It is a fundamental means of human communication, enabling the preservation and transmission of knowledge across generations. Writing systems have evolved from ancient pictographs to modern alphabets and scripts. Writing serves various purposes, including literature, documentation, correspondence, and administration. It plays a crucial role in education, culture, and technology, shaping societies and facilitating global interaction.
