A pictographic traffic sign (top) warning motorists of horses and riders. A pictogram (also pictogramme, pictograph, or simply picto [1]) is a graphical symbol that conveys meaning through its visual resemblance to a physical object. Pictograms are used in systems of writing and visual communication.
In logographic writing systems, glyphs represent words or morphemes (meaningful components of words, as in mean-ing-ful) rather than phonetic elements. No logographic script is composed solely of logograms. All contain graphemes that represent phonetic (sound-based) elements as well.

The term itself: "Anishinaabewibii'iganan", simply means Ojibwe/Anishinaabe or "Indian" writings and can encompass a far larger meaning than only the historical pictographic script. Indeed, Anishinaabewibii'iganan may describe the pictographic script better since its connections with non-Anishinaabe or -Ojibwe nations extend deeply.
In the behaviorism approach to psychology, behavioral scripts are a sequence of expected behaviors for a given situation. [1] Scripts include default standards for the actors, props, setting, and sequence of events that are expected to occur in a particular situation. The classic script example involves an individual dining at a restaurant.
