Chinese characters, also known as Chinese characters, Chinese characters and Chinese characters, belong to ideographic syllabic characters, which were invented and improved by the Han nationality. They are one of the four oldest self-generated scripts in the world (cuneiform scripts in the two river basins, sacred scripts in ancient Egypt, Mayan scripts in Oracle Bone Inscriptions and China in Shang Dynasty), and they are also the only scripts still in use today.
Chinese characters are the longest-used characters in the history of the world, and they are also the main official characters in China. The change of official script is a milestone in the development history of Chinese characters.
