Post a Comment Reading by Syllables and Graphico-Orthographic Features of Old Russian Birchbark Letters
Abstract
A significant part of birchbark letters use the so-called vernacular graphic system, the main distinguishing feature of which is the mixing of the letters ъ and o, ь and e. Researchers have suggested that the development and main features of this system are related to the skills that the authors of birchbark letters acquired in the process of mastering literacy. The article provides arguments supporting this hypothesis. In the final part of the article, the vernacular graphic system is considered in the context of the world history of writing.
