There are not many publications dedicated to the topic of graphemics and featuring it as the main tool of research. In fact, this can be the reason why there is a lack of a regular, systematic description of this field. Hence, the aim of this paper is, firstly, to characterize graphemics as a branch of linguistics. Secondly, to analyze its research items and tools. Lastly, to describe its field of interest. The following article examines the division of graphemics research areas into phonographic and ideographic systems of writing, and distinguishes their characteristic features. Moreover, the article presents the current state of research in the field of graphemics and suggests the possibilities for further interdisciplinary inquiries.
