| | Glagolitic Alphabet |
| | The legend says that they formed Cyrillic and Glagolitic alphabets simultaneously; but in fact, according to historical documents, it seems that was Cyril who invented Glagolitic, and his brother and his pupils already made up Cyrillic. | | | While variants of the Cyrillic Alphabet have been in use to write Slavic (and some Central Asian, non-Slavic) languages for more than a thousand years, there was another alphabet, so called Glagolitic (from Old Church Slavic glagoliti meaning "to speak"), that was used side-by-side to Cyrillic in the early history of writing in Eastern Europe. | | | There were two brother missionaries in Saloniki in the 9th century, Cyril and Methodius, who once decided to create a special alphabet for the Slavs to read Christian books. |

| | The Ultimate Ukrainian alphabet - American History Information Guide and Reference |
| | The Ukrainian Alphabet (Українська азбука, Ukrajins′ka azbuka or &;, abetka in Ukrainian) is used to write Ukrainian, the official language of Ukraine. | | | As in other Cyrillic alphabets, hand-written or cursive letters vary somewhat in form from their block-letter, or typeset upright, counterparts, particularly the letters г, д, и, й, and т. | | | Typographically, the small (lower-case) letters are very similar to small-caps versions of the capitals, although sophisticated faces may have a small-caps font which is different from the lower-case. |

| | Glagolitic alphabet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Not only did the aliens write in Glagolitic, but their leader was called "Cyrillus"! | | | The alphabet was then used in Great Moravia between 863 (when Cyril and Methodius arrived there) and 885 for government and religious documents and books, and at the Great Moravian Academy (Veľkomoravské učilište) founded by Cyril, where followers of Cyril and Methodius were educated (also by Methodius himself). | | | Another theory (see Chernorizetz Hrabar) asserts that the Glagolitic alphabet was based on ancient Slavic runes (chrti i rezi, i.e., lines and notches), which like the Germanic runes were only used in sacred texts of the pre-Christian Slavic religion. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Glagolitic |
| | This is known as the Cyrillic alphabet or Kirillitsa. | | | Although the Slavic peoples bordering on the Adriatic Sea were converted to the Roman Rite, they received the privilege, as well as their brethren of the Greek Rite, of having the Mass and the offices of the Church said in their own tongue. | | | The ancient Slavonic when reduced to writing seems to have been originally written with a kind of runic letters, which, when formed into a regular alphabet, were called the Glagolitic, that is the signs which spoke. |

| | Welkya - The Creation of the Slav Script - Part2 |
| | Certain investigators consider the Cyrillic alphabet to have been the work of Cyril; others think that it is a work of his disciple Clement of Ohrid. | | | The Cyrillic alphabet is one containing all the letters of the Greek alphabet, unaltered or modified; new letters were created only for the sounds, which were unknown in Greek speech. | | | Since the Old Bulgarian writings were written in two alphabets – the Cyrillic and the Glagolitic – there has been a long dispute over the question: which of the two Old Bulgarian alphabets was the one created by Cyril. |

| | This would not exclude the possibility of his having made use of earlier letters, but implies only that before him the Slavs had no distinct script of their own for use in writing books. | | | This view is confirmed by the "Prague Fragments" and by certain Old Glagolitic liturgical fragments brought from Jerusalem to Kief and there discovered by Saresnewsky-- probably the oldest document for the Slavonic tongue; these adhere closely to the Latin type, as is shown by the words "mass," "preface," and the name of one Felicitas. | | | The so-called Glagolitic script can be traced back at least to the middle of the tenth century, possibly even into the ninth; it presupposes a man of some education as its originator, and is evidently derived principally from the Greek, but also partly from the Latin cursive. |

| | Glagolitic alphabet and pronunciation |
| | The Glagolitic alphabet was invented during the 9th century by St Cyril and St Methodius, missionaries from Byzantium, in order to translate the bible and other religious works into the language of the Great Moravia region. | | | A more modern form of the language, known as Church Slavonic, appeared during the 14th century and is still used in the Russian Orthodox church. | | | They probably modelled Glagolitic on a cursive form of the Greek alphabet, and based their translations on a Slavic dialect of the Thessalonika area, which formed the basis of the literary standard known as Old Church Slavonic. |
