Domain-specific

• Morphogram
  • Mixed systems combine morphograms with syllabograms, alphabets, spacing, and punctuation.
• Syllabary
  • Coulmas emphasizes that writing-system classifications describe dominant functional principles rather than forcing every historical script into a perfectly pure type.

Verification

Does it exist? Not confirmed. The DOI recorded for this work did not resolve when it was last checked, so it is shown above but not linked. The citation may still be sound; the recorded identifier is not. Flagged for repair.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 2 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
