Talk:Bulgarian alphabet
Including examples
I think the table should include Bulgarian words as examples. Also, what about the use of "m"? /aswler/
- That's a possibility. What about the "m"? --JorisvS (talk) 08:01, 10 May 2015 (UTC)
Use of Roman script in Bulgarian
What about including both the romanized and the unromanized forms for comparison? —Dave Andrew (talk) 00:49, 15 September 2015 (UTC)
- I edited the section a little bit. --V111P (talk) 06:35, 15 September 2015 (UTC)
Cursive letters
Hi there. As a learner, I found the cursive forms very confusing - and keep falling for it. Any objections to adding a column with the cursive forms? (I think that's what the reader above was referring to with "m" as in, "t") 87.112.180.82 (talk) 20:56, 27 November 2015 (UTC)
Done 87.112.180.82 (talk) 03:35, 28 November 2015 (UTC)- Actually... in my book they use g for lowercase д, not д... Can someone confirm please? 87.112.180.82 (talk) 03:45, 28 November 2015 (UTC)
- Yes, but you have to use a cursive Cyrillic font to see the cursive forms. See the pictures at Cyrillic script#Letterforms and typography. --V111P (talk) 04:38, 28 November 2015 (UTC)
- Sorry, what do you mean? That we need to clarify that in the article, or add a reference to that section? Or that you oppose my change? Incidentally, I notice that lowercase italic п (п), in my font, doesn't look like n, but it just looks like a slanted п... Shall we just cheat and use italic latin letters, and say that that's what they look like (with some fonts)? 87.112.180.82 (talk) 21:17, 28 November 2015 (UTC)
- Well, your solution clearly didn't work, right? The only way to reliably show the cursive letters in Wikipedia is with an image, so I just included the image from the Cyrillic script article in this one as well. --V111P (talk) 18:57, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
- I think it's important to show the cursive characters right next to the roman ones. Incidentally, I notice that your picture is also missing the п, ironically. 87.112.180.82 (talk) 07:47, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
- It's not "my" picture, and it shows exactly what you want - both the print and cursive letters. And п and n are not significantly different, that's why it's missing. --V111P (talk) 07:57, 30 November 2015 (UTC)

No, the reason why it's missing is because that image is incomplete. Also it suggests, and you also seem to believe, that you need an entirely different font to see the different shapes, which is not true. In my version I could see the cursive characters. I tested it with IE, Firefox and Chrome on a vanilla Windows 10 machine, so I don't see how you can claim that it "clearly didn't work". The only missing character was the g for д. What font are you displaying Wikipedia with? Anyway, I accept that we need to cater for many different systems, so I'll try the same solution as the one adopted in the (complete) table below the picture in the section you pointed me to. 87.112.180.82 (talk) 23:18, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
