I want to know the answer to the following question:
What was the name of the cursive script that gave expression to spoken words?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Hiragana gave written expression to the spoken word and, with it, to the rise in Japan's famous vernacular literature, much of it written by court women who had not been trained in Chinese as had their male counterparts.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: no
