At one time the historiographical work of Herodotus and earlier was named; and centuries later to a shorthand system. Today is the name given to writing systems that use logograms as symbols representative of ideas to compose larger words. The concept would be between the lexema and the ideogram. The name is composed of the Greek voices 955; 959; 947; 959; 962; ( logos "history, treated, knowledge" ) 947; 961; 945; 966; 949; 953; 957; ( graphein "write" ) .
