^^^

I like the Serbian alphabet the most although Macedonian alphabet is easier for me to write since I'm more used to it.

[Absinthe]

I thought there was only one Cyrillic alphabet? :p

[Murphy]

There is a difference :eek:?!

[esaima]

There exists in fact many cyrillic alphabets for non-Slavic languages: Kazakh, Uzbek, Tadjik, Yakut, Mongolian, Udmurt and many others.

Bulgarian - the first and the original cyrillic

[Cail]

There is a difference :eek:?!
Like there is between Latinic ones. Some additional letters, slightly different orthography et cetera.

Indeed, thanks to Russia's imperialist influence over them.

The best bit;

Syllable hui is transcribed not as хуй but as хуэй (Huizu - Хуэйцзу) or, less often, as хой (Anhui - Аньхой) for aesthetic reasons, since хуй (chuj) is a vulgar word for "penis" (similar to "cock" in usage) in Russian and several other Slavic languages.
:p

I've actually had to translate a lot of this.... :eek:

[Cato]

Ukrainian.

[Turkophagos]

Pfft, another greek alphabet...

Serbian of course, duh :P

[poiuytrewq0987]

Pfft, another greek alphabet...

And you could only ever hope to copy from the Phoenicians to have your own alphabet.

[Wulfhere]

Glagolitic.

[poiuytrewq0987]

Glagolitic.

That is not a Cyrillic alphabet but an alphabet of its own.

[Wulfhere]

That is not a Cyrillic alphabet but an alphabet of its own.

But closely related and possibly ancestral.

Uzbeks and Mongols changed to the Latin alphabet.

Uzbeks and Mongols changed to the Latin alphabet.Mongols haven't. The Latin script was in use only for two months in 1941 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mongolian_writing_systems).

[Gaztelu]

I chose Russia due to their superiority over the other nations listed. Serbian would come in second, followed by the Ukrainians.
