>Is it looks good or strange?
Sorry but it's not pleasant looking because it's mainly "mirrored Latin alpahbet" and that somehow brings anxiety to me.
Imagine you wake up in the midnight to take a piss, and you see dancing Cyriric letters on the dark corridor to a toilet room. That's scary.
>>
>>67685020

I think we did a massive troll on the rest of the world with it.

It's close enough to latin to almost make a sense of it, but different enough to mindfuck you.
>>
>>67685020
> Is it looks good or strange?
I like it, especially in this medieval font style.
> I think like alien symbols for english speakers.
Not really because most letters are similar. But due to historical reasons it's associated with industrial dystopic Soviet imagery in many people's minds.
> but I think cyrillic better for universal abc.

Old slavonic, i think. I copied this text from my grandmother's Bible. When studied. Many Orthodox Bible uses this font. It is a traditional Russian type.

Yeah. Interdental sound is not so complicated. But for the typical Russian accent.

Cyrillic created two Greeks. They knew Latin. Two major Western culture.

>>67686931
It's really easy to learn how to read it.
>>
Cyrillic is cool (hell, I have a degree in Russian), but Glagolitic is the shit.
>>
>>67687286

the two "greeks" you are referring to are Cyril and Methodius, who were send to Moravia in order to provide them with a slavic script and potentially cut them off the catholic influence

the script they developed was the glagolic script

after their death their mission ended and their students were kicked out


they came here and under the patronage of king Boris they and other scholars developed the Cyrilic script used today that replaced the glagolic script


as for the two brothers, it is speculated they had some slavic heretige themselves but that is entering we wuz realm

Speaking of Russian drinks, I like Baikal. A bit expensive tho (~2 EUR per bottle).

Same company makes and imports GOST standard Tarhun.

It does not look longer. But Cyrillic enjoys the most numerous ethnic group in Europe.

Just for the sake of fun, I tried adapting some languages into using Cyrillic.

>German
ÄÖÜ = ЯЁЮ, ß = C, S = 3, CH=Х and SCH=Ш. Then it works IMHO better than Latin.

>Italian
GN = Њ, GL = Љ. Stress needs to be deducted from context.

>Portuguese
It works, but only with a bunch of ugly hacks.
/ã ẽ ĩ õ ũ/ = aн eн ин oн yн
/ɛ ɔ/ = eь oь
"strong R" (RR, root beginning) = X. Etymologically ugly but it avoids digraphs.
"weak R" (end-syllable and intervocalic) = P

>Polish
http://steen.free.fr/cyrpol/index.html

>English
The same as with Latin alphabet: bash some random keys.

ß would be cc, not just c
ÄÖU can be written as ӘӨҮ, those sounds/letters exist in Kazakh etc
>>
>>67692441
>ß would be cc, not just c
It would be annoying to set long and short vowels apart then. Single S gets 3 anyway, so there is no confusion.

Also, Cyrillic in general avoids digraphs. I only used those in Portuguese as hack.

Regarding ÄÖÜ: the problem is, that German uses the umlaut for grammatical purposes too. The iotated letters "hint" the link better IMHO.
>>
>>67692689
> Single S gets 3 anyway
That could work if it's written as зъ or something when it's voiceless, e.g. at the end of a syllable.
ß could become cз then.
> German uses the umlaut for grammatical purposes too.
You don't say.
> The iotated letters "hint" the link better IMHO
Not really, the letters ӘӨҮ look more similar to AOУ than ЯЁЮ.

Also the letter Һ (from Kazakh as well) should be used to transliterate H.
>>
>>67692987
Well, ß as C3 is ugly, but at least etymologically justifiable.

>зъ
No need - Slavic languages also "imply" devoicing at word end, so дaз, зибeн would be read as /das, ziben/ by the natives. The only "imported" rule would be the consonant doubling to make them /da:s/ and /zi:bən/. (Maybe зибeнн? I don't know if the stress would make the shortening implicit.)


Fuck, I forgot about it. Usually X is used in this situation, but German kinda complicates the scene...
Other alternatives would be Г for /h/, X for /x/ and Ґ for /g/ (like Ukrainian) or even repurpose Ч, since German has no "true" /ʈ͡ʂ/.
>X for /h/, [digraph] for /x/

bulgaria created alphabet used even up to mongolia
