    Try going for as phonetic as possible. For the schwa (/ə/), consult with the father of Cyrillic: Bulgarian. Their modern variant of Cyrillic uses the letter "ъ" for a sound almost identical to the schwa. Most Anglo-Cyrillic nerds I know go for "ъ" when dealing with the schwa sound. Russian also uses "ъ", but it represents a "hard sign", to show that a consonant is not palatalised. I doubt you'd need this variant in English (if you do, go for the classic ' vs ", used in Ukrainian), so it's safe to use Bulgarian schwa-esque "ъ". If you need tips, I'm happy to help, I'm curious what your version of Anglo-Cyrillic looks like :)

    I'm a hobby linguist and I've been learning Ukrainian for about 2 years. For my conlangs I typically add both a Romanization and a Cyrillization system, and in my experience, vowels are always a problem. I love the borrowing of Ў from Belarusian, I do the same. Have you considered differentiating letters г and ґ? In Ukrainian г is IPA ɦ and ґ is IPA ɡ. Personally, I like to use the hard sound (Ъ) and soft sound (ь) as digraphs to differentiate phonemes, when a conlang doesn't utilize palatalization. Examples: θ = ть ð = тЪ (if I want to keep an English aesthetic) ð = дь (if I want phonological consistency) Lastly, have you taken any inspiration from Interslavic?

  • @ConnorQuimby

    My main conlang I used to do (the one I reference in this video) used both the latin and cyrillic alphabets so I do the same- As for г versus ґ, I do know about the difference between the two in Ukrainian, however, since I've studied cyrillic through Russian I felt that could be confusing as I read г as /g/. Ъ ь are smart. That would definitely improve the quality. I would honestly take both the aesthetic and consistency route for the voiced dental fricative if English really differentiated between the two and if I were to redo this video. And no, I have not taken inspiration from Interslavic. Thanks for the comment!

    For more info context: • Cyrillic was created in Bulgaria during the Christianisation, in order to standardise the language and translate Christian texts. It was fairly Greek influenced. • Greek has the letter theta (θ) to represent the unvoiced dental fricative. • The sound doesn't exist in Bulgarian (or most other Slavic languages), however it exists in Greek and many Christian texts contain that letter (eg: in names). • So, Cyrillic had the letter to represent the sound when translating texts from Greek. • When Russia would adopt Orthodox Christianity, Cyrillic, OCS and support from Bulgarian missionaries, the letter would be passed onto them. It would be kept, iirc until a reform that got rid of it.

    The fact that I was able to read those sentences at the end of the video without knowing any Cyrillic feels amazing, and is a good testament to how well made the system is I imagine that the sheer number of Greek letters in engineering has helped (Cyrillic is, after all, based off of Greek, and the Greek letter sounds tend to go with their names... so knowing a bunch of random Greek letter names is surprisingly useful for this), as has staring at a bit too many maps of Ukraine. What a weird way to learn a writing system LMAO.

    I used to sometimes use the Oregonian English alphabet from Ill Bethisad (Which is a modified Cyrillic to have some English sounds not found normally in Cyrillic, Or Russian Cyrillic atleast, Such as 'th' or 'w'.) as a joke, And that's basically how I actually learned Cyrillic, I mean I wasn't trying to learn it, But from doing that enough I wound up just remembering what the most common letters were, And then once I realised I already knew most of the letters, I kinda just tried to memorise the others too. EDIT: So I see my description of said alphabet is basically what you did here, So I figured I might go into more detail. It is fairly similar to the one used here, Although with a few differences, Namely using the old letter 'Ѳ' (Fita) for the 'Th' (Or 'Þ') Sound, And the letter 'Џ' (Dzhe, Found in Macedonian and Serbian I believe) for English 'J', As well as difference in the vowels, Which seem to be more phonetic (Although it's hard to tell because they didn't use IPA, I think they used SAMPA instead, Which I don't know how to read), For example a silent 'e' at the end of a word is represented by 'Ъ' or 'Ь', Which I think is a pretty neat idea, And 'E' (When it is actually pronounced) and 'O' seem to have two different characters based on how they're pronounced.

    For the two 'th' sounds you could just use omega for the unvoiced sound; Russian actually had that until a spelling reform in the 19th century because there are a lot of words of Greek origin in Russian but the letter was pronounced like F, and ultimately it was abandoned in favour of F (hence Fyodor). As for G, H and NG, I'd suggest using the Ukrainian G and H, which leaves X for things like Gallic place names in Scotland (like Loch Ness) which are pronounced like the Russian X. For NG you could combine the Ukrainian G with the H symbol that represents N in both languages. I think if we invent a new writing system for English, we shouldn't make it "bug for bug compatible" but try and iron out some of the illogical antiquated features.

    I suppose there are many different schools of thought that could emerge about this, since English is remarkably inconsistent among its spellings; as long as this small issue exists, there will be a debate as to approach it either in a phonetic manner, or a direct transliteration from English spellings. But the upside to this is - with different variations of the ways people express and spell certain words, as long as you know what any of the borrowed characters are from different dialects, anyone should be able to interpret each other’s approaches.

    As a Ukrainian I would suggest an improvement. In Ukrainian we use ґ for the g sound and г for the h sound. Ukrainian г and russian г have different pronunciations btw. So instead of using x for h (because x is more of a rough kh sound rather than h) you can use г and using ґ for g in that case would be logical.

I often use Anglocyrillic in my own personal writing because I like it so much. I like other scripts that aren't alphabets such as Chinese and Japanese, but Cyrillic is my most favorite alphabet. I was wondering, why did you use shch "Щ" for 'w' instead of "Ў" as you said from Belarusian? I was using "ö" to represent 'w' but it's difficult when typing. Using 'Ў' will make things a lot easier. I was using "ϴ" to represent both 'th" sounds, but it's only on the Mongolian Cyrillic keyboard and it made it difficult. I still don't know how to deal with that, and I abhore using "Tx" to represent this sound. I don't know how to find the symbol you used here. What language was it from?
