Hence a possible interpretation seems to me idea diffusion, as in the case of Sequoyah's syllabary.

因此，在我看来，一种可能解释是观念传播，就像塞阔亚节表一样。

Most such tailor-made systems modify existing alphabets, though some instead design syllabaries.

大多数此类定制系统都会修改现有字母表，尽管有些系统会设计节表。

He knew that over centuries, place names tend to remain constant, and decided to compare Linear B to an ancient syllabary from the island of Cyprus.

他知道，即使历经数个世纪，地名也大多保持不变，于是他决定将线形文字 B和塞浦路斯岛代节文字进行对比。

Nevertheless, the phonetic signs in Sumerian writing fell far short of a complete syllabary or alphabet.

然而，苏美尔文字中语符号远远达不到完整节或字母表。

Linear B, the writing of Mycenaean Greece, was at least simpler, being based on a syllabary of about 90 signs plus logograms.

线形 B 是迈锡尼希腊文字，至少更简单，它基于约 90 个符号和语节表。

Sequoyah's syllabary is widely admired by professional linguists for its good fit to Cherokee sounds, and for the ease with which it can be learned.

Sequoyah 节表因其非常适合切罗基语发且易于学习而受到专业语言学家广泛赞赏。

The disk's script was a syllabary with more signs, of more complex form, than the Roman alphabet used by Gutenberg.

该光盘文字是一种节文字，与腾堡使用罗马字母相比，其符号更多、形式更复杂。

Thus, the developmental sequence of uses for alphabetic writing was the reverse of that for the earlier systems of logograms and syllabaries.

因此，字母书写使用发展顺序与早期语和节系统发展顺序相反。

Similarly, Japan continues to use its horrendously cumbersome kanji writing system in preference to efficient alphabets or Japan's own efficient kana syllabary—because the prestige attached to kanji is so great.

同样，日本继续使用其极其繁琐汉字书写系统，而不是高效字母表或日本自己高效假名节——因为汉字威望是如此之大。

A striking example from the history of writing is the origin of the syllabary devised in Arkansas around 1820 by a Cherokee Indian named Sequoyah, for writing the Cherokee language.

书写史一个引人注目例子是 1820 年左右阿肯色州一位名叫塞阔亚 (Sequoyah) 切罗基印第安人为书写切罗基语而设计节文字。

Some syllabaries persist today, the most important being the kana syllabary that the Japanese use for telegrams, bank statements, and texts for blind readers.

有些节表至今仍然存在，其中最重要是日本人在电报、银行对账单和盲人阅读文本中使用假名节表。

When Ventris plugged some of the sounds of the Cypriot syllabary into the Linear B inscriptions, he came up with the word Knossos, the name of the city where Evans had discovered his tablets.

当文特里斯将塞浦路斯节文字某些发代入到线形文字 B 中时，他得到了 “克诺索斯” 这个词，也就是伊文斯发现泥板城市名字。

Within a short time, the Cherokees achieved almost 100 percent literacy in the syllabary, bought a printing press, had Sequoyah's signs cast as type, and began printing books and newspapers.

在很短时间内，切罗基人就实现了几乎 100% 节识字率，购买了一台印刷机，将 Sequoyah 志作为字体，并开始印刷书籍和报纸。

The writing was no longer an ambiguous syllabary mixed with logograms but an alphabet borrowed from the Phoenician consonantal alphabet and improved by the Greek invention of vowels.

文字不再是混有语模糊节文字，而是借用腓尼基辅字母表并通过希腊人发明元加以改进字母表。

For the same reason, we can be sure that the Linear B syllabary of Mycenaean Greece had been adapted by around 1400 B.C.from the Linear A syllabary of Minoan Crete.

出于同样原因，我们可以肯定，希腊迈锡尼线性 B 表在公元前 1400 年左右就已经从克里特岛米诺斯线性 A 表改编而来。

However, he did make two accurate observations: the tablets were administrative records, and the script was a syllabary, where each symbol represented both a consonant and a vowel, mixed with characters that each represented a whole word.

不过，他确做出了两项准确观察：这些泥板是行政记录；文字是节文字，其中每个符号都代表了一个辅加元，并融进了一些代表整词字符。

Surrounded by alphabets he could not understand, he instead independently reinvented a syllabary, unaware that the Minoans of Crete had already invented another syllabary 3,500 years previously.

周围都是他无法理解字母，他反而独立地重新发明了一种节文字，却没有意识到克里特岛米诺斯人早在 3500 年前就已经发明了另一种节文字。

The number of distinct signs (45) suggests a syllabary rather than an alphabet, but it is still undeciphered, and the forms of the signs are unlike those of any other known writing system.

不同符号数量（45）表明是节文字而不是字母表，但它仍未被破译，而且符号形式与任何其他已知书写系统不同。

Like the signs of Japan's kana and Mycenaean Greece's Linear B syllabaries, Maya phonetic signs were mostly signs for syllables of one consonant plus one vowel (such as ta, te, ti, to, tu).

与日本假名和迈锡尼希腊线形B节符号一样，玛雅语符号大多是一个辅加一个元节符号（如ta、te、ti、to、tu）。
