While researching the Cherokee writing system, a student takes the following notes:
* Sequoyah, a Cherokee silversmith, began developing a writing system for the Cherokee language in 1809.
* He completed the system, a syllabary of 85 characters representing spoken syllables, in 1821.
* Prior to Sequoyah's syllabary, the Cherokee language was purely oral.
* Within a decade of its introduction, the system enabled the Cherokee people to achieve literacy rates higher than those of neighboring European-American settlers.
The student wants to summarize the creation and impact of the Cherokee writing system. Which choice most effectively uses information from the given notes to accomplish this goal?
- ABy the late 1820s, the Cherokee people had achieved widespread literacy, surpassing the literacy rates of the European-American settlers living near them.
- Although the Cherokee language was purely oral prior to 1809, the 85-character syllabary completed by Sequoyah in 1821 was rapidly adopted, enabling Cherokee literacy rates to surpass those of neighboring settlers within a decade.Cevap
- CIn 1809, a Cherokee silversmith named Sequoyah set out to create the first written form of the Cherokee language, which he completed in 1821 as an 85-character syllabary.
- DSequoyah's 85-character syllabary was so popular that neighboring European-American settlers adopted it to increase their own literacy rates by the late 1820s.
Cevap
Although the Cherokee language was purely oral prior to 1809, the 85-character syllabary completed by Sequoyah in 1821 was rapidly adopted, enabling Cherokee literacy rates to surpass those of neighboring settlers within a decade.
The correct choice summarizes both the creation and the impact of the writing system by noting that the 85-character syllabary was completed by Sequoyah in 1821 (creation) and that it led to literacy rates that surpassed those of neighboring settlers within a decade (impact).
