A little Cyrillic, anyone? Today we present some Cyrillic alphabets, along with a couple of graphic usages, reproduced in ABZ, edited by Julian Rothenstein and Mel Gooding, and published in San Francisco by Chronicle Books in 2003 (an earlier edition was published by Shambhala in 1993 as Alphabets & Other Signs).

Making my obsession with the Cyrillic writing system public, pixel art fonts for slavic cyrillic alphabets (with bonus interslavic)!!!

Open to suggestions and updates. I also made some for the turkic languages, check notes for that :0

The alt versions were just for when I was indecisive, but right now I'm pretty happy with the ones I picked.

СЙРОЖИН (≈Cyrohzin)

Trying to learn Cyrillic as someone who speaks Bad English and Good English (and Bad French) is a mind melter.

It is funny the letters that do stick in my head though (like а, в, д, ж, п, and р), but those mostly stuck because I learned правда first 🤭

the idea of writing a language in a different writing system than it's usually in is so interesting to me. Like,

те идеа ов вритинг а лангваш ин а дипрент вритинг системы тан ит'с юшуалиь вриттен ин ис со интерестинг то ми. Лаикь. (Russian cyrillic)

Θε ιδεα οφ βριτινγ αι λανγυαγε ιν αι διφερεντ βριτινγ συστεμ θαν θτει άυρε υοσιαλλι βριτεν ιν ις σου ιντερεστινγ το με. Λαικε. (greek)

And even in the same alphabet, but different language it is fun. Though that's more common.

Annd iven in de saime alfhabet, bøtt diffærent længuagsj itt is fønn. Dåv datt's måre kommon. (Norwegian latin)

(disclaimer that I'm not that good at either the Greek nor the cyrillic alphabet. Any suggestions as to how to improve this trans-alphabet thing are welcome!)

it's interesting when there are like just sounds kinda missing. It's probably easier there more you know the alphabet and languages using it, but like "f" in Russian is like ???, I used the kinda v-sounding one because v and f are pretty similar, but there might be a better version. And trying to get "they" and "are" in Greek was difficult as well, I probably need to learn more about diphtongs in Greek and the é and à thingies.

National anthem of Ukraine: Ukraine will not perish (Ще не вмерла України)

It is a tragic national anthem. Why does Russia bully Ukraine, which uses the same Cyrillic alphabet? They are called sibling languages. If you can read Russian, you can read Ukrainian. To begin with, Russia has continued to persecute Ukraine. During Stalin's time, Russia stole grain from Ukraine and millions of Ukrainians starved to death. ...It is Russia that should be destroyed.

 

 

ウクライナ国歌：ウクライナは滅びず（Ще не вмерла України）

悲壮な国歌である。ロシアは、同じキリル文字を使うウクライナを、どうしてこうも苛めるのだろう。兄弟言語と言われるのに。ロシア語が読めれば、ウクライナ語は読める。そもそも、ロシアはウクライナを迫害し続けてきた。スターリンの時代、ロシアはウクライナから穀物を強奪して、数百万人のウクライナ人が飢え死にした。・・・滅びるべきはロシアである。

no no no, he's like me, he'd recognise д as the Cyrillic d, ω as the Greek ō, ツ as the Katakana ts, etc and have each one of these keyboards installed to toggle between. He would type, not copypaste, each face, and then it would be mutual surprise when he finds out everyone's been copypasting all of them rather than typing character by character every time

He probably talks while he’s typing

everyday the Cyrillic alphabet get reduced to the Russian alphabet I lose a little bit of respect for the world when will you all LEARN

[letz-smoke-zaza]

just me going crazy and talking about cyrillic alphabet 24/7 to anyone I know cause 1. it’s entertaining to learn, my days seem less boring since my vacations started, 2. I feel smart doing so, 3. it’s pretty and 4. I want everyone to learn cyrillic alphabet too. At the same time I feel like gatekeeping to my relatives cause I wanna feel smart learning something by myself that nobody asked me to learn. Ignore this Duolingo paid me to talk about languages learning and I need my money.

I have an headache now. Byeee.
