Yes. And we can read that because we've a passing familiarity with Latin cursive. I assume Cyrillic readers can make sense of the Russian example, even if we're clueless.

It usually looks like this, with the dotted i's, which is a lot more legible.

Where cyrillic or georgian script

[-] nesc@lemmy.cafe 32 points 7 months ago

Cyrilllic is bulgarian in origin, but I think this picture describes eastern asian scripts (there are other cool ones among those, like tamil).

Which asian language uses those?

Russia, Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan

I thought Kazakhstan switched to Latin script

[-] magic_lobster_party@fedia.io 1 points 7 months ago

The transition is still undergoing. Takes a while to switch.
