Topic: Zhe (Cyrillic)


In the News (Wed 8 Oct 08)

  
  Zhe (Cyrillic) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Zhe (Ж, ж) is the letter of Cyrillic alphabet which represents the voiced postalveolar fricative /ʒ/ (listen), similar to the "s" in the English word "treasure".
Zhe is the 7th letter of the Bulgarian and Belarusian alphabets, the 8th letter in the Macedonian, Russian and Serbian alphabets, and the 9th in the Ukrainian alphabet.
Zhe is one of the first letters learned by children who learn to write in Slavic languages, because it looks quite like a young frog floating in a pond, and in these languages the word meaning "frog" or "toad" is written "жаба".

The set of Cyrillic letters is not as uniform in extent as the Latin set, in particular, several letters were added in Serbia, deleting some required for other Slavic languages, and as late as 1917 four letters were removed from the Russian alphabet.
Cyrillic script is written from left to right, and has a definite alphabetic order for the letters, (with small deviations for the individual languages).
For Cyrillic the first letter is K. The conventions for the rest are based on the appearance a letter would have in Latin transliteration, even where no visible diacritic occurs.

I do not know what its current status is nor whether the Latin script is in use in Uzbekistan at the present time.
The original document was in Cyrillic; I have retyped the document in the romanization specified in the document itself (so far as I could read the fax) and written the Cyrillic letters in the table according to their names in ISO/IEC 10646.
The romanization scheme is fairly straightforward; the only criticism I would have of it is that it uses LATIN J WITH STROKE to represent CYRILLIC ZHE WITH DESCENDER.
