Relationship between Greek, Cyrillic, and Latin alphabet | Handwriting

[@leyteristhomas6994]

As a native Greek the last two letters aren't used at all today. The only instance where I know them is from the adoption of the alphabet from the Phoenicians by the Greeks creating the first Greek alphabet. Also the cyrrilic script has some letters that look completely different from Greek but in lowercase or in an earlier form of the language known as katharevousa (καθαρεύουσα) they were used in the same or in similar context

[@jonin_cunren]

But aren't you using them as numbers?

[@leyteristhomas6994]

@@jonin_cunren no we just use the Arabic numerals today 12345... Spelling them similarly to the Latin pronunciation (one = ένα, two = δύο, three = τρία, four = τέσσερα, hence the tessaract from the same origin). This answer is for today's usage in earlier forms we may have used them like the latin I, II, III, IV... but the only usage I can think of today as numbers is in our identification cards called ταυτότητες, but still even there we just use the normal Greek alphabet in capital (ΑΒΓΔ...)

[@frostbittenwinds9703]

Greek doesn't really have a direct /b/ sound (unless you use the combination of "μπ" (mp)), and both the Greek and Cyrillic "B" is actually pronounced as a /v/ (though Cyrillic does have a /b/ sound as its own character). Just a cool noticing since both also happen to be identical to the Latin B when in uppercase.

[@HeroManNick132]

Same for Bulgarian and most Slavic languages (except for "Macedonian" and Serbian) for the English J we write combining Д (D) and Ж (Ž) into "ДЖ" instead of "Џ" for making the Turkish "C" or the English "J." Except for these 2 languages, Slavic languages don't have a direct letter for "J."

[@frostbittenwinds9703]

@@HeroManNick132 A good amount of languages don't, and therefore a good amount of languages likewise use the "dz" combination due to being phonetically identical

[@alareiks742]

The Greek language had "b" sound for beta/vita letter before late Koine Greek period around 3-4 BC.

[@priyanshuguha2365]

Each alphabet has their own unique origins. Some of them are very interesting. For example, upsilon (Y) was never used in good Latin, but it was simplified to V to represent the /u/, /v/ & /w/ sounds. Later, individual language standards gave rise to the requirement of the separation of this alphabet for the /u/ sound, which birthed U, a curved version of simplified Y. The /w/ sound was represented by the duplication of this letter. W was really two Us, not two Vs, which is why we call it in English "Double-U". It is just an incidence that the W in computer fonts are rendered sharp, but in handwriting it remains curved.

[@yuhshasama]

近代英語まではVはUの異文字体でしかなかった(そもそもv音が無かった)から英語ではDouble-Uですが、ロマンス系の言語、例えばフランス語ではDouble-VってVになってますよ。

[@elenakoryikina]

V+V=«W»

[@minsekfau3218]

Y is widely used in Greek loan words, though

[@-verias-1439]

わー、これはとても面白です！😗👍🏻

[@fasol1998]

3:45 The latin F definitely origins from the phi, not the double gamma. Small letters f and φ are very similar and even more similar in handwritten forms. BTW the author forgot the cyrillic V-like ypsilon used in slavic languages for greek words (Only one word remained with this letter until 1918 when many old letters were removed. There were миръ, міръ and мvро and in genitive case they would look like миромъ, міромъ and мvромъ, in modern Russian these words look the same in genitive). And the Y-like letter in cyrillic alphabet is used in Mongolian and various Turkic languages.

I really want to see the Brahmic Script evolution from India sub-continent, which was the source of most writing systems in huge parts of Asia continental This is including Siddham Script, a sacred Buddhist writing scripts from India via Tibet Himalaya that transfered to Far East, but that no longer exist in anywhere except Japan, it survives in some Japanese Buddhist temples.

Χχ in Greek is not the same as Xx in English or Roman, Χχ (chi) in Greek is actually closer in pronunciation to خ (Khah) in Arabic or Ch in German than Xx in English or Roman. It is Ξξ that is the English or Roman equivalent of Χχ in Greek
