 Evolution of word

To communicate he has  developed a language.  Then he started writing. At first leaves and stones, pencil, pen, type writer and as his tools. 

Type writer [ For better appearance as well as easy to read ] 

After the invention of the typewriter it  was easy to write business or personal communications. It is good  for  every body to read but there are difficulties. Such as  correcting  any thing which we type. Also if we need more copies we have to type whole letter again. 

Electronic typewriters [ For correction and temporary  storage ]
