The theory is supported by the fact that the Cyrillic alphabet almost completely replaced the Glagolitic in northeastern Bulgaria as early as the end of the tenth century, whereas the Ohrid Literary School—where Saint Clement worked—continued to use the Glagolitic until the twelfth century.
Although Cyril is almost certainly not the author of the Cyrillic alphabet, his contributions to the Glagolitic and hence to the Cyrillic alphabet are still recognised, as the latter is named after him.
Cyrillic uppercase and lowercase letter-forms are not as differentiated as in Latin typography.

 Volapuk encoding - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Volapuk encoding (Russian: кодировка "воляпюк" or "волапюк", kodirovka volapyuk) is a slang term for rendering the letters of the Cyrillic alphabet with Latin ones.
Volapuk has been in use since the early days of the internet to write e-mail messages and other texts in Russian in cases where the support of Cyrillic fonts was limited: either the sender did not have a keyboard with Cyrillic letters or the receiver was not necessarily expected to have Cyrillic screen fonts.
In the early days the situation was aggravated by a number of mutually incompatible computer encodings for the Cyrillic alphabet, so that the sender and receiver were not guaranteed to have the same one.

The Cyrillic alphabet (or azbuka, from the old name of the first two letters) is an alphabet used to write six natural Slavic languages (Belarusian, Bulgarian, Macedonian, Russian, Serbian, and Ukrainian) and many other languages of the former Soviet Union, Asia and Eastern Europe.
Though it is usually attributed to Saint Clement of Ohrid, a Macedonian disciple of Saint Cyril and Saint Methodius, the alphabet is more likely to have developed at the Preslav Literary School in northeastern Bulgaria, where the oldest Cyrillic inscriptions have been found, dating back to the 940s.
The Cyrillic alphabet was used for the Uzbek language from 1940 to 1992.

 Sha - Biocrawler   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Sha (Ш, ш) is a letter of the Cyrillic alphabet, representing the consonant sound /ʃ/ or /ʃʲ/.
This sound is described as a voiceless postalveolar fricative and postalveolar fricatives are the major reason why the Glagolitic and later the Cyrillic alphabet were invented because Slavic languages are rich on postalveolar fricatives and you cannot write these sounds with a simple Roman or Greek letter without diacritics.
Most letters of Cyrillic script have been derived from Greek and as there was no Greek sign for the Sha sound, Glagolitic Sha was adopted.

 yery - Article and Reference from OnPedia.com
Yery (Ы, ы) is a letter in the Cyrillic alphabet.
It represents the tense intermediate vowel (IPA) in the Belarusian and Russian alphabets.
Like many Cyrillic letters, originally the letter Yery was formed from a ligature — between Yer (Ъ) and Izhe (then І) or Izhei (then Н, now И).

 Volapuk encoding - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
It has been in use since the early days of the internet to write e-mail messages and other texts in Russian in cases where the support of Cyrillic fonts was limited: either the sender did not have a keyboard with Cyrillic letters or the receiver was not necessarily expected to have Cyrillic screen fonts.
Over the following five years the situation improved drastically, and now most of the mobile devices in Russia have full support for Cyrillic messaging.
This price matter made "volapukization" even more profound, because people not only transliterate Russian words to Latin script, but also abbreviate them chaotically, and change Russian words to English equivalents or "equivalents" (English words are shorter than Russian ones).

There are also other theories regarding the origins of the Cyrillic alphabet, namely that the alphabet was created by Saint Cyril and Saint Methodius themselves, or that it preceded the Glagolitic alphabet, representing a "transitional"?title=stage between Greek and Glagolitic cursive, but these have been widely disproved.
Upright Cyrillic lowercase letters are essentially small capitals (with the exception of a few forms such as "а"?title=and "е"?title=which adopted Western lowercase shapes), although a good-quality Cyrillic typeface will still include separate small caps glyphs.
