Glagolithic was also created by a byzantine monk.

looks nice
Can you still write modern Russian with that script?
>>
>>58096574
Your letters are ugly and angular with often uppercase and lowercase letter being the same. Latin alphabet is as perfect as it gets. The diacritics can look nice, like Š.

to be honest = jos rehellisiä ollaan

or the more popular "if we're speaking the truth" = jos totta puhutaan

although everyone uses desu and nobody outside /mämmi/ would know what jtp would mean
>>
>>58097744
Everyone meaning people outside of 4chan? Would a Finnish person use t bh while using Finnish?
>>
>>58097533
An interesting fact: both Greek /u/ and Slavic /u/ come from a diphthong /ou/, therefore using oy for /u/ in the old Cyrillic can be considered etymological spelling, even though the Slavic languages didn't have a writing system when this sound change was happening.
>>
>>58097947
Not the abbreviation.
>>
>>58097947
everyone under 20 would understand the meaning of tßh but not jtp or any other acronym from finnish that means the same thing

how that?
>>
>>58094048
Literal translation
>Дa бъдa чecтeн
But that sounds a bit stiff in conversation, so you'd use
>Чecтнo кaзaнo
Which means "spoken honestly", so the same as truth be told
