  • Learning Cyrillic
    LEARNING CYRILLIC Question: If there is no equivalent letter in the Cyrillic alphabet for the Roman "J" or "H" how do you transcribe good German names like Johannes, Heinrich, Wilhelm, etc. I heard one suggestion that Johann was written as Ivan and that the "h" was replaced with a "g". Can you give me a little insight into what you have found? In researching would I be looking for the name Ivan rather than Johann? One must always think phonetic, that is, think how a name is pronounced in German, and how does the Russian Cyrillic script produce that sound? JOHANNES. The Cyrillic spelling begins with the letter “I – eye”, but pronounced “eee”, so we have phonetically “eee-o-hann” which sounds like “Yo-hann”. You can see it better in typeface – Иоганн , which letter for letter reads as “I-o-h-a-n-n”. The modern Typeface script is radically different than the old hand-written Cyrillic script. Use the guide which I sent to you. Ivan is the Russian equivalent of Johann, and it pops up occasionally in Church records. JOSEPH / JOSEF. Listen to the way the name is pronounced in German – “yo-sef”, also “yo-sif”. That “yo” sound is produced by the Cyrillic script letters “I” and “o”. Again you can see it in the typeface. Иосеф and also Иосиф. And sometimes Joseph appears as , transliterated as O-s-i-p. Similar to all languages and scripts, Cyrillic spellings are not consistent. The “a” ending indicates a male name. JAKOB. There is no “Jay” sound in the German language.

The Russian alphabet isn’t as hard as you think. COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL From A to Ya: Making sense of Cyrillic The Russian alphabet is based on the Cyrillic alpha- bet, which was named after the ninth-century Byzantine monk, Cyril. But throughout this book, we convert all the letters into familiar Latin symbols, which are the same symbols we use in the English 05_149744 ch01.qxp 7/26/07 6:07 PM Page 6 6 Russian Phrases For Dummies alphabet. This process of converting from Cyrillic to Latin letters is known as transliteration.

And even if you don’t want to read the real Russian, check out Table 1-1 to find out what the whole fuss is about regarding the notorious “Russian alphabet.” Notice that, in most cases, a transliterated letter corresponds to the way it’s actually pronounced.

  • Allen Wright's Chahta Leksikon, Ben Watkins's Choctaw Definer, and Sev­ Eral Works by T
    PREFACE This is a dictionary of Chickasaw, a language of the Muskogean family of American Indian languages now spoken primarily in the Chickasaw Nation of south-central Oklahoma. The Chickasaws are one of the Five Tribes of Oklahoma (traditionally known as the Five Civilized Tribes), having been moved to Indian Territory there by the federal government in the 1830s. Our dictionary consists of several introductory sections, which explain the struc­ ture and use of the dictionary; a Chickasaw-English section, with main entries for Chickasaw words, including definitions, grammatical information, ety­ mologies, cross-references, and examples; and an English-Chickasaw index. While this book primarily reflects the speech of Catherine Willmond, who grew up near McMillan, Oklahoma (a community in western Marshall County), every effort has been made to present additional varieties of spoken Chickasaw. Other speakers whose usage has been extensively recorded (and who have helped us in many other ways as well) include Frankie Alberson, Adeline Brown, Vera Virgie Brown, Willie Byars, Onita Carnes, the late Mina Christie, the late Cora Lee Collins, Lizzie Frazier, Lorene Greenwood, Emily Howard, Mary James, Luther John, the late Tecumseh John, the late Jeff Johnson, the late Martha Johnson, the late Maybell Lacher, Caroline Milligan, the late Tennie Pettigrew, Eloise Pickens, the late Clarence Porter, Leola Porter, Flora Reed, Lee Fannie Roberts, Mary Ella Russell, Minnie Shields, the late Hattie Stout, Thomas Underwood, and Adam Walker. These speakers represent areas of the Chickasaw Nation from Kingston in the south to Byng or Happyland (near Ada) in the north, and from Davis or Ardmore in the west to Fillmore and Wapanucka in the east; their ages at the time of our work ranged from the late thirties to the late nineties.

  • Language Specific Peculiarities Document for Halh Mongolian As Spoken in MONGOLIA
    Language Specific Peculiarities Document for Halh Mongolian as Spoken in MONGOLIA Halh Mongolian, also known as Khalkha (or Xalxa) Mongolian, is a Mongolic language spoken in Mongolia. It has approximately 3 million speakers. 1. Special handling of dialects There are several Mongolic languages or dialects which are mutually intelligible. These include Chakhar and Ordos Mongol, both spoken in the Inner Mongolia region of China. Their status as separate languages is a matter of dispute (Rybatzki 2003). Halh Mongolian is the only Mongolian dialect spoken by the ethnic Mongolian majority in Mongolia. Mongolian speakers from outside Mongolia were not included in this data collection; only Halh Mongolian was collected. 2. Deviation from native-speaker principle No deviation, only native speakers of Halh Mongolian in Mongolia were collected. 3. Special handling of spelling None. 4. Description of character set used for orthographic transcription Mongolian has historically been written in a large variety of scripts. A Latin alphabet was introduced in 1941, but is no longer current (Grenoble, 2003). Today, the classic Mongolian script is still used in Inner Mongolia, but the official standard spelling of Halh Mongolian uses Mongolian Cyrillic. This is also the script used for all educational purposes in Mongolia, and therefore the script which was used for this project. It consists of the standard Cyrillic range (Ux0410-Ux044F, Ux0401, and Ux0451) plus two extra characters, Ux04E8/Ux04E9 and Ux04AE/Ux04AF (see also the table in Section 5.1). 5. Description of Romanization scheme The table in Section 5.1 shows Appen's Mongolian Romanization scheme, which is fully reversible.

  • RUSSIAN CYRILLIC ALPHABET Sunday, 08 April 2012 20:15
    RUSSIAN CYRILLIC ALPHABET Sunday, 08 April 2012 20:15 {joomplu:1215 left} The CYRILLIC ALPHABET is the official alphabet of the Russian Federation. When coming to Russia, one might be very intimidated by the strange letters and words that are written everywhere. There is no need to worry anymore. We would like to educate everyone on the Cyrillic alphabet, and how to read it, understand it, and love it. So that by the end of this article you will be able to read and understand the tricky Russian alphabet hands down. =) The Cyrillic alphabet was first developed in the 10th century AD in the area known as Bulgaria today. The alphabet has gone through a lot of changes over its history, and looks somewhat similar in some aspects today, as it did so many years ago. Cyrillic is the official alphabet of several Slavic countries such as: Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, and Serbia. But it is also used in several other post-Soviet countries. The alphabet is derived from the ancient Greek script. The usage of Cyrillic nowadays is that it serves as one of the three official alphabets in the European Union. In the Russian alphabet, there are 33 letters and 43 sounds (6 vowels and 37 consonants) as opposed to the 26 letters of the English alphabet (Latin alphabet) with the total of 52 sounds. Both alphabets contain similar letters such as A, E, K, M, O, and T, which are pronounced not exactly the same but quite similarly: The Russian T, K, and M are the equivalents of the respective sounds in English.

  • Reading Russian Documents: the Alphabet
    Reading Russian Documents: The Alphabet Russian “How to” Guide, Beginner Level: Instruction October 2019 GOAL This guide will help you to: • understand a basic history of the Cyrillic alphabet. • recognize and identify Russian letters – both typed and handwritten. • learn the English transcription and pronunciation for letters of the Cyrillic alphabet. INTRODUCTION The Russian language uses the Cyrillic alphabet which has roots in the mid-ninth century. At this time, a new Slavic Empire known as Moravia was forming in the east. In 862, Prince Rastislav of Moravia requested that missionaries from the Byzantine Empire be sent to teach his people. Shortly thereafter, two brothers, known as Constantine and Methodius, arrived from what is now modern-day Macedonia. Realizing that a written alphabet could aid in spreading the gospel message, Constantine created a written alphabet to translate the Gospels and other religious texts. As a result of his work, the Orthodox Church later canonized Constantine as St. Cyril, Apostle to the Slavs. The Russian Empire adopted St. Cyril’s alphabet in 988 and used it for centuries until some changes were made in the seventeenth century. In 1672, Tsar Peter the Great came into power and immediately began carrying out several reforms, including an alphabet reform. Peter wanted the Cyrillic characters to appear less Greek and more westernized. As a result, several Greek letters were eliminated and other letters that looked “too” Greek were replaced with Latin visual equivalents. Additionally, Peter the Great replaced the Cyrillic numbering system for the usage of Arabic numerals. The next major change to the alphabet came in 1918, following the Russian Revolution.

  • ASCII-Cyrillic and Its Converter Email-Ru.Tex
    ASCII-Cyrillic and its converter email-ru.tex by Laurent Siebenmann A new faithful ASCII representation for Russian called ASCII-Cyrillic is presented here, one which permits accurate typing and reading of Russian where no Russian keyboard or font is available -- as often occurs outside of Russia. ASCII-Cyrillic serves the Russian and Ukrainian languages in parallel. This article initially discusses Russian; but, further along, come the modifications needed to adapt to the Ukrainian alphabet. TeX is mother to ASCII-Cyrillic inasmuch as its converter "email-ru.tex" is a program in TeX language which is interpreted by TeX. On the other hand, ASCII-Cyrillic is designed to be useful beyond TeX. Indeed a current project is to make it available on Internet so that the vast public ignorant of TeX can exploit it. This provisional Internet bias has led to the use of HTML for this article, bitmaps and all. Contents Overview Crash course on Russian ASCII-Cyrillic Ukrainian ASCII-Cyrillic Vital statistics for ASCII-Cyrillic Below is a photo of a fragment of Russian email sent from France to Russia. Ideally, it would be typed as 8-bit text using a Russian keyboard and screen font, and then assigned a suitable MIME type identifying the font encoding. To the email system, the message contents would be a sequence of "octets" or "bytes" (each 8 zeros or ones), where each octet corresponds to a character according to the font encoding. The ASCII-Cyrillic and its converter email-ru.tex 175 receiving email system and email reader are expected to recognize the encoding and provide for Cyrillic display and printing.

    60 Lesson 14 14.1 The Perfect: Roots 111-W/Y. G verbs from these roots exhibit both nabaPa and gabra types (examples below). When the final stem syllables -co.,)- and -ay- are closed (in the 1st and 2nd person forms), there is an optional contraction of co.,) too, which is quite common, and of ay toe, which is rare. These same contractions occur in D, L, and Q verbs, whose stem formations are otherwise regular.
