After attempting to create a <a href="/wiki/Logograph" class="mw-redirect" title="Logograph">character for each word</a>, Sequoyah realized this would be too difficult and eventually created characters to represent syllables. He worked on the syllabary for twelve years before completion and dropped or modified most of the characters he originally created. </p><p>After the syllabary was completed in the early 1820s, it achieved almost instantaneous popularity and spread rapidly throughout Cherokee society.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEWalkerSarbaugh199370–72_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEWalkerSarbaugh199370–72-4"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> By 1825, the majority of Cherokees could read and write in their newly developed orthography.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEMcLoughlin1986353_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMcLoughlin1986353-5"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Some of Sequoyah's most learned contemporaries immediately understood that the syllabary was a great invention. For example, when <a href="/wiki/Albert_Gallatin" title="Albert Gallatin">Albert Gallatin</a>, a politician and trained linguist, saw a copy of Sequoyah's syllabary, he believed it was superior to the English alphabet in that literacy could be easily achieved for Cherokee at a time when only one-third of English-speaking people achieved the same goal.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> He recognized that even though the Cherokee student must learn 85 characters instead of 26 for English, the Cherokee could read immediately after learning all the symbols.
