ancient Rome's writing system was basically the same as ours. However they didn't use the same rules of punctuation that we do. That is, most of the time they ran their sentences together without punctuation and in letters, some writers even talked about two different things in a single paragraph. They followed the Latin rules of grammar in which words have variable endings to show their relationship to other words.

No, ancient Roman writing was not pictographic. Their writing was almost the same as ours. The Romans used the Latin alphabet (the were Latins). The western European languages use adapted forms of the Latin Alphabet. Additionally, the English alphabet has the letters J, U, and W which the Latin alphabet did not have.
