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

Clearly that's mimimum

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.

Where cyrillic or georgian script

[-] [email protected] 32 points 6 days 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?

[-] [email protected] 6 points 6 days ago

Russia, Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan

[-] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

I thought Kazakhstan switched to Latin script

[-] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

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

Stay tuned for the sequel!
