  5. The Aramic language These Canaanites didn't know how to read or write, but when they saw Egyptian hieroglyphs, they got interested in writing down their own language. They used simple versions of the Egyptian hieroglyphs to stand for sounds in their own language - Aramaic.

  6. The West Asian language West Asia is probably not the first place where people figured out how to write, though Egyptian people began writing very soon afterwards. People seem to have begun to write in Mesopotamia during the time of the Sumerians.

  7. The Roman language The Roman Empire lasted for more than a thousand years, so there was plenty of time to produce a lot of writing. Latin, an Indo-European language, was written in an alphabet derived from the Greek alphabet, with some letters changed: the Latin or Roman alphabet is essentially the one Americans use today. English-speakers have added the letters J and U and W.

  8. The Chinese language People in China began writing about 1500 BC, more than a thousand years later than people in West Asia or Egypt, but earlier than anyone in Europe, Africa, or Central America. The earliest writing that we know of from China was on animal bones,

  9. The Indian language One of the earliest known writing systems came from India, Unfortunately, people couldn't read the Harappan writing yet. But we know people were using this writing to mark their property, so other people couldn’t steal it, and to keep track of things.
