Russian Latin

Name: Anonymous 2010-03-29 16:03

My variant of Latin alphabet for Russian:

А а - A a
Б б - B b
В в - V v
Г г - G g
Д д - D d
Е е - Je je
Ё ё - Jo jo
Ж ж - Ž ž
З з - Z z
И и - I i
Й й - J j
К к - K k
Л л - Ł ł
М м - M m
Н н - N n
О о - O o
П п - P p
Р р - R r
С с - S s
Т т - T t
У у - U u
Ф ф - F f
Х х - Ch ch
Ц ц - C c
Ч ч - Č č
Ш ш - Š š
Щ щ - Šč šč
Ъ ъ - no exact match
Ы ы - Y y
Ь ь - long explanation, see below
Э э - E e
Ю ю - Ju ju
Я я - Ja ja

Indication of palatalization is similar to Polish, but 'e' is always palatal in Russian and hence does not require 'i' before it. More letters can have kreska over them. Usage of 'y' follows the Cyrillic rules.

Бь бь - B́ b́
Вь вь - V́ v́
Дь дь - D́ d́
Зь зь - Ź ź
Ль ль - L l
Мь мь - Ḿ ḿ
Нь нь - Ń ń
Пь пь - Ṕ ṕ
Рь рь - Ŕ ŕ
Сь сь - Ś ś
Ть ть - T́ t́
Фь фь - F́ f́

Samefag as >>28 and >>30
I think in English when I see a crazy spelling. This was the Germanic language I was talking about, I thought was pretty obvious.

French has a bastardly crazy spelling, but its phonology still works enough in a Latin alphabet with diacritics that really DO something (not "omg lets put ^ where was Latin /s/ cuz our lang will look cooler ethymology is important blahblahblahblah...").

But French is Romance. With heavy Germanic and Keltik borrowings, but Romance.

j for ж works if you don't use it as semivowel-i (like Yes). I think it's a crazy break of simmetry, however - no reason to use "ch" (French style = sh in Eng) for |_|_| and not use "gh" to >|<.

And yes, I'm too lazy to search in the charmap.
