Talk:Ukrainian Ye

Untitled

[edit]

Can this ever be more than a stub!!!!????? Peter Shearan 16:54, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, it has a history (it's derived from an Old Cyrillic letter, which in turn is derived from somewhere else), it probably has a few typographic and handwritten variant forms, it takes part in at least one ligature, in the Ukraine it's probably used as an abbreviation for things, it has at least 6 different systems of being transliterated into the Latin alphabet, it would have various representations in other communication systems (braille, morse code, etc), it probably has numerological significance... I don't actually know the details of these things, but someone who did could write an article. --Ptcamn 18:05, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

EU confusion, deliberate or otherwise

[edit]

The reference to use of Є for "Greek epsilon" has moved to this page: https://european-union.europa.eu/institutions-law-budget/euro/design_en ... but this is really trivia or a simple mistake, so I have removed the following from the article.

In a memorandum from the European Commission on the design of the euro sign, Ukrainian Ye was used to represent the Greek letter Epsilon. (ref) cite web "How to use the euro name and symbol" European Commission – Economic and Financial Affairs

I sent a report of the error with the "feedback" tool on the EU page, but it seems to be anonymous, so I will get no feedback, and I am sure they are not interested in correcting errors. Imaginatorium (talk) 04:11, 28 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Why the letter Є is a backwards version of Э

[edit]

Even though it is based off the Cyrillic letter Ye (Е), the letter Є is still like a backwards version of Э judging by their appearance (Є/Э). Chiagozie Elobuike (talk) 02:09, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Е, Є, and Э are all based on letterforms from the early Cyrillic alphabet, where they were to some degree interchangeable, and ultimately from Greek epsilon. Their modern usage in Ukrainian and Russian comes from the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.  —Michael Z. 12:49, 11 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
