Can you provide some examples of where Ashurit refers to the language and
not to the script?  Without any proofs, my natural association of the word
Ashurit
is specifically to a Ksav.
yes, 

"Vehaloez SheShama Ashurot Yatza" - Mishna, Megila, Perek B, Mishna Alef
(I think also in Megilah 8 b - "Shmama AShurit Yatza")
Shama (HEARD) cannot be just script. (am I right?)
