making up an alphabet for my slav inspired world.... the language is just the russian language but ill make variant letters for other slavic languages since they also show up. gonna have each letter be represented by a word beginning with it (like proto-sinaitic) so the [x] sound will be represented by a loaf of bread (хлеб). also im basing it a bit on old church slavonic/glagolitic with old letters so for the [ks] sound instead of making it up with two letters (кс) im gonna make it its own letter like how it used to be (Ѯ). and it will be a door because of the greek word xenia being transliterated as ksenia and the whole concept of xenia being about hospitality so. Door. but i might do something resembling bread-and-salt since that's both a) welcoming strangers and b) slavic tradition
