A writing system, or script is not a language; it is a means of conveying information through written language.They can be classified as follows.
 
===Script Type===
'''Alphabetic''':
Individual units  for writing are composed of consonants, and in some cases vowels. When combined they spell out words phonetically. Eg: Indic, Arabic, Latic, Greek etc.
 
'''Syllabic''':
The individual units for writing are composed of syllables. Eg: Japanese kana and Korean Hangul
 
'''Ideographic''':
A writing system which uses pictures or symbols to represent words. Eg: Chinese
 
===Context dependent Glyph Shaping===
'''Positional''':
The shape of the character changes depending on the position in the word. Eg: Arabic greek.
 
'''Ligatures''':
Characters combine to form a different shape when they appear next to one another. In Indic scripts ligatures are mandatory.
 
'''Cursive''':
The letters are joined while writing.
Arabic is an example.But English is not of this kind.
===Text Direction===
 
'''Left to right''':
Text is written left to right horizontally. Eg: Indic, English
 
'''Bidirectional''':
Examples are Arabic and Hebrew.Text is written right to left while numbers and latin words are written left to right.
 
'''Vertical''':
In Chinese and Japanese text is written vertically
 
===Other Characteristics===
 
'''Diacritics''':
Special marks used for accents, tones, and vowels, or to uniquely identify a character. In some writing  systems such as Indic and Thai, diacritics can span multiple characters.
 
'''Word seperator''':
Most of the languages use space as word separator. Exceptions are Chinese, Thai , and Japanese
 
'''Punctuation''':
Marks are inconsistent across writing systems
 
'''A detailed description of above writing systems can be found at [[wikipedia:writing system|Wikipedia page on Writing Systems]]'''
