Is it true that Chinese is written with characters?
Yes. A reference article on written Chinese states that Chinese characters have always been used to represent spoken syllables and that written Chinese is not based on an alphabet or syllabary. Several other sources also describe Chinese as written in characters, though mostly in passing.
