The pasigrafía is a writing system that are written by the concepts rather than words or phonetic. The objective (as in ordinary numbers 1, 2, 3, etc.) Is to be intelligible to people of any language. The term was applied to a system proposed in 1796. Pasi in Greek means "all." Leibniz and Alexander von Humboldt are associated with the concept.
"Proceedings of the National Council are printed having got picked up a stenographer, that is, a man who writes as fast as we speak, art preserved in England, formerly used by the Romans and had improved in France, where even diversified into musical notes and in other ways, as also pasigrafía began practicing. Or art of understanding what is written in any language, without understanding [...] which reached perfection in Prussia with a few numbers. "
