Scope note

Text

This class represents a conventional symbolic system designed to represent units of a natural language with the purpose of recording and transmitting information. A writing system consists of a set of symbols (graphemes, TX8), instantiated through physical signs of a visual or tactile nature (glyphs, TX9) representing linguistic units of any kind and the related syntactic (i.e., graphotactic) rules.

It is used to produce a TX1 Written Text during a TX2 Writing event.
