Determinative
A determinative, also known as a taxogram or semagram, is an ideogram used to mark semantic categories of words in logographic scripts which helps to disambiguate interpretation.
See Phonogram (linguistics) and Determinative
Grapheme
In linguistics, a grapheme is the smallest functional unit of a writing system. Phonogram (linguistics) and grapheme are graphemes and linguistics terminology.

Logogram
In a written language, a logogram (from Ancient Greek 'word', and 'that which is drawn or written'), also logograph or lexigraph, is a written character that represents a semantic component of a language, such as a word or morpheme. Phonogram (linguistics) and logogram are graphemes.
See Phonogram (linguistics) and Logogram
Morpheme
A morpheme is the smallest meaningful constituent of a linguistic expression. Phonogram (linguistics) and morpheme are linguistics terminology.
See Phonogram (linguistics) and Morpheme
Phoneme
In linguistics and specifically phonology, a phoneme is any set of similar phones (speech sounds) that is perceptually regarded by the speakers of a language as a single distinct unit, a single basic sound, which helps distinguish one word from another. Phonogram (linguistics) and phoneme are linguistics terminology.

Semantics
Semantics is the study of linguistic meaning. Phonogram (linguistics) and Semantics are linguistics terminology.
See Phonogram (linguistics) and Semantics
Word
A word is a basic element of language that carries meaning, can be used on its own, and is uninterruptible.
See Phonogram (linguistics) and Word
Writing system
A writing system comprises a particular set of symbols, called a script, as well as the rules by which the script represents a particular language.
