Glagolitic alphabet - Glagolitic letters

Japanese: グラゴール文字 - グラゴールもじ
Glagolitic alphabet - Glagolitic letters
One of the two scripts used along with Cyrillic to write Old Church Slavonic, the language of the oldest Slavic documents. It is said to have been created in the 860s by Cyril (Slavic name Cyril), who is said to be the apostle of the Slavs. This script is based on accurate observation of Slavic pronunciation and is, in principle, an alphabet with one letter per sound, with only a very small number of letters indicating two sounds per letter. It is said to have been established about 50 years before the Cyrillic alphabet, and the two scripts are almost identical.

スラブ語最古の文献の言語である古代教会スラブ語の文字としてキリル文字と共に使われた二つの文字の一つ。スラブの使徒といわれるキュリロス(スラブ名キリル)によって860年代に作られたといわれる。この文字はスラブ語の発音の正しい観察に基づく,原則として1音1文字のアルファベットで,ごく少数の文字だけは1文字で2音が示されている。キリル文字に約50年先行して成立したといわれ,この二つの文字はほぼ対応している。
