What is script name symbol "means emacs set-fontset-font function?

When I read the documentation about set-fontset-font, I found the following sentence:

(set-fontset-font TARGET FONT-SPEC NAME & optional FRAME ADD)

Change fontset NAME to use FONT-SPEC characters for TARGET characters.
...
TARGET may be a script character . In this case, use FONT-SPEC for all characters belonging to the script.
GOAL may be charset . In this case, use FONT-SPEC for all characters encoded.
...

But I can not find more information about what the script name symbol means? I am searching through Google to find an example that uses the "kan" ascii 'kana. But I do not find details about what it is? Is there a way to list all possible values?

BTW,
 Is there a way to specify all the possible "charset" values ​​available for set-fontset-font?
