A syllabary is a form of writing system, in which a letter represents a syllable, rather than a sound. Syllabaries were common in ancient days, but the [[alphabet]], which is less complicated and easier to learn and write, quickly replaced most syllabaries. However, the [[Japanese]] and [[Cherokee]] languages still use syllabaries.
