» Amanda Kendle - Cyrillic Stumbling ...


Hi Kerry,
Thanks, now I know who to thank for the confusing Cyrillic alphabet! I've traveled a lot throughout eastern Europe and before my first trip to Russia I sat down studiously to learn the alphabet - it helped a lot to recognise street names etc, but the similarities to our alphabet made it almost more confusing to learn ... Is it adapting to be more like our alphabet or changing in other ways??
cheers
