Paul Cantrell@ian OK, Iāll chime in:
Most writing systems either evolve over generations, or are created by expert linguists.
But Cherokeeās was invented by one person, Sequoyah, who not only was not a linguist, but never went to school and never learned to read or write.
He saw English-language books, and despite not speaking English, understood the general principle, and thought, āI can do that for my language!ā
He spent 12 years developing his writing system, and it is still the standard today.
