The Cyrillic alphabet owes its name to the 9th century Byzantine
missionary St. Cyril, who, along with his brother, Methodius,
created the first Slavic alphabet—the Glagolithic—in order to
translate Greek religious text to Slavic. It is on the basis of
this alphabet that the Cyrillic alphabet was developed in the First
Bulgarian Empire during the 10th century AD by the followers of the
brothers, who were beatified as saints. Based on the
Greek ceremonial script, the original Cyrillic alphabet included the 24
letters of the Greek alphabet and 19 letters for sounds specific to the Slavic
language. The Cyrillic
alphabet has gone through many reforms in both Russia and other countries. In
Russia, the first reformer of the Cyrillic was printer and publisher Ivan
Fyodorov. He eliminated the letters Е and С
and many forms of the letter О. Most reforms saw
the number of letters decrease and the simplicity of their inscription
increase. But the reverse has also happened: at the end of 18th century the
Russian writer and historian Nikolay Karamzin suggested to introduce the
letter Ё. Letters Э and Й
were officially added to the alphabet in 18th century.
The Cyrillic alphabet achieved its current form in 1708 during the reign of
Peter the Great. He introduced lower case characters (before all letters were
written with capital letters) and mandated the use of westernized letter
forms, making the modern Cyrillic similar to the modern Latin font.
The very existence of the Cyrillic alphabet in Russia was once under threat.
In 1919 there was an idea to replace it with the Latin one and bring it into
harmony with the alphabet used in Western countries. That could have made the
process of learning Russian much easier for some, but this was not to be and
we can still enjoy the masterpieces of Russian literature in their original
script.
Today Cyrillic is the third official script of the European Union, following
the Latin and Greek scripts. It is used in over 50 different languages,
especially those of Slavic origin, mainly in Russia, Central Asia, and Eastern
Europe. In Russia the Old
Slavic language, which uses the Cyrillic alphabet has been historically used
for religious services, and is sometimes used for these purposes today. The
modern Russian alphabet differs from its forefather dramatically, and only
experts will be able to tell how the letters of the original Cyrillic alphabet
looked like and were read in texts using it. Courtesy of RT.News
