The Cyrillic script, Slavonic script or simply Slavic script is a writing system used for various languages across Eurasia. It is the designated national script in various Slavic, Turkic, Mongolic, Uralic, Caucasian and Iranic-speaking countries in Southeastern Europe, Eastern Europe, the Caucasus, Central Asia, North Asia, and East Asia, and used by many other minority languages.
The Abkhaz alphabet is a Cyrillic alphabet used for the Abkhaz language.
In phonetics, ejective consonants are usually voiceless consonants that are pronounced with a glottalic egressive airstream. In the phonology of a particular language, ejectives may contrast with aspirated, voiced and tenuis consonants. Some languages have glottalized sonorants with creaky voice that pattern with ejectives phonologically, and other languages have ejectives that pattern with implosives, which has led to phonologists positing a phonological class of glottalic consonants, which includes ejectives.
The palochka is a letter in the Cyrillic script. The letter is usually caseless. It was introduced in the late 1930s as the Hindu-Arabic digit '1', and on Cyrillic keyboards, it is usually typeset as the Roman numeral 'I'. Unicode currently supports both caseless/capital palochka at U+04C0 and a rarer lower-case palochka at U+04CF. The palochka marks glottal(ized) and pharyngeal(ized) consonants.
Kabardian also known as East Circassian, is a Northwest Caucasian language, that is considered to be the east dialect of Adyghe language. Circassians reject west and east dialects to be different languages and refer to them both as "Circassian".
Adyghe is a Northwest Caucasian language spoken by the western subgroups of Circassians. It is spoken mainly in Russia, as well as in Turkey, Jordan, Syria and Israel, where Circassians settled after the Circassian genocide by the Russian Empire. It is closely related to the Kabardian language, though some reject the distinction between the two languages in favor of both being dialects of a unitary Circassian language.
The letter Ƣ has been used in the Latin orthographies of various, mostly Turkic languages, such as Azeri or the Jaꞑalif orthography for Tatar. It is also included in pinyin alphabets for Kazakh and Uyghur; and in the 1928 Soviet Kurdish Latin alphabet. It usually represents a voiced velar fricative but is sometimes used for a voiced uvular fricative. All orthographies that used the letter have been phased out and so it is not well-supported in fonts. It can still be seen in pre-1983 books published in the People’s Republic of China.
Qaf, or Ka with descender, is a letter of the Cyrillic script used in a number of non-Slavic languages spoken in the territory of the former Soviet Union, including:
B, ʙ is an extended Latin letter used as the lowercase B in a number of alphabets during romanization. It is also used in the International Phonetic Alphabet to denote a voiced bilabial trill. In the Uralic Phonetic Alphabet, it denotes a semi-voiced bilabial stop consonant.
Che with descender is a letter of the Cyrillic script. Its form is derived from the Cyrillic letter Che. In the ISO 9 system of romanization, Che with descender is transliterated using the Latin letter C-cedilla (Ç ç).
Latinisation or latinization was a campaign in the Soviet Union to adopt the Latin script during the 1920s and 1930s. Latinisation aimed to replace Cyrillic and traditional writing systems for all languages of the Soviet Union with Latin or Latin-based systems, or introduce them for languages that did not have a writing system. Latinisation began to slow in the Soviet Union during the 1930s and a Cyrillisation campaign was launched instead. Latinization had effectively ended by the 1940s. Most of these Latin alphabets are defunct and several contain multiple letters that do not have Unicode support as of 2023.
The Latin letter K with descender is a Latin letter.
Ḉ is a Latin script letter formed from C with added acute accent and cedilla.
Latin yeru or I with bowl is an additional letter of the Latin alphabet based on the Cyrillic soft sign. It was introduced in 1928 into the reformed Yañalif, and later into other alphabets for Soviet minority languages. The letter was designed specifically to represent the non-front close vowel sounds IPA:[ɨ] and IPA:[ɯ]. Thus, this letter corresponds to the letter ⟨I ı⟩ in modern Turkic alphabets, and the letter yery in Cyrillic.
Reversed ge is an additional letter of the Latin script which was used in the writing of the Abkhaz language from 1928 to 1938, in the Abaza language, in the Kabardian language, in the Shiddin language and in the Udi language.
Reversed F is an additional letter of Latin writing used in epigrahic inscriptions to abbreviate the words filia or femina. It was also formerly used in the writing of the Abaza, the Abkhaz, the Adyghe and the Kabardian languages in the 1920s and 1930s.
H with left hook is an additional letter of the Latin script which was used in the writing of the Abaza and the Kabardian languages in the 1920s and was proposed for the writing of the Sotho-Tswana language in 1929.
Turned H with stroke or turned h with stroke at descender is a letter of the Latin script which was used in the orthographies of the Abkhaz and the Abaza languages.
) is a letter of the Latin script, used in various Latinized scripts for languages of the Soviet Union. Due to the shift of the alphabets of Soviet languages from Latin to Cyrillic, it fell out of use, and has not been encoded in Unicode. [1] [2]
