Have you ever wondered how many ways humans have found to write language? The World’s Writing Systems is an incredible online resource that brings together glyphs and basic information about the many scripts used throughout history and across the globe. It’s part of a long-term effort called the Missing Scripts Project, which aims to document all known writing systems, including those not yet encoded in the Unicode standard and therefore not widely supported on computers.
The website showcases hundreds of writing systems (from ancient scripts like Proto-Sinaitic and Ugaritic to modern ones like Latin, Arabic or Ethiopic) and allows users to explore them by region, time period and Unicode status. Each entry includes a representative character and background context, making the site a fascinating visual catalogue and reference for anyone interested in linguistics, typography, history or world cultures.
