Talk:Euro-Ukrainian alphabet

Verifiability
Hmm this is different from the Omniglot version. It's closer to Luchukivka but with different letters. -Iopq 21:59, 1 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Yes, it differs from the only reference listed in the article. This must be verifiable through published sources, otherwise this article appears to be original research.  (What is Luchukivka?)  —Michael Z. 2006-08-14 16:46 Z

How do we render "свято"?
From what it looks like, the Euro-Ukrainian system transfers the iotal element directly from the vowel (as it is in the proper Ukrainian Cyrillic system) to the preceding consonant: e.g. "uŕad" < "уряд". Therefore, there must be two sets of consonant graphemes: those that are hard (normal) (such as "r") and those that are soft (palatalized) (such as "ŕ"). Labial consonants (as far as I know) are always followed by the apostrophe when preceding the iotal vowels (i.e. "є", "ї", "ю", "я"), so the need of a soft set for labial consonants is not required.

Nevertheless, what happens with the letter "v" (Cyrillic "в") in a soft position?

For example, how do we write "свято" in the Euro-Ukrainian system?

There is no diacriticized "v" in the common basic Unicode the way there is a diacriticized "r" (i.e. "ŕ") in order to render the iotal element on the consonant: "s?ato". Writting "ja" for "я", however, would imply that "svjato" < "св'ято", and even if it is not an issue of ambiguity here, the fact the "я" is rendered so differently in "уряд" and "свято" is unaesthetical. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.231.223.145 (talk) 00:47, 10 December 2006 (UTC).

Proposed? Since when? I can see the difference between this and Łatynka, but what's the historic difference? — Alex(T 02:48, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
