Latin letters with no Glagolitic letter 3

  • w stays as typed No Glagolitic letter is read as w in the table.

How this list was compiled: Which Latin letter stands for which Glagolitic letter: the table Wiktionary uses to write Glagolitic in Latin letters (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Module:Glag-translit), read on 2026-10-12 and run backwards here. It follows the scientific transliteration of Old Church Slavonic. Each row was then looked up a second way: the Cyrillic letter that the alphabet table of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glagolitic_script sets beside the Glagolitic one, in the Church Slavonic column of the table in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_transliteration_of_Cyrillic. The two agree, but for two rows: that table gives đ for Serbian and not for Church Slavonic, and writes izhitsa ẏ where Wiktionary has ü. Where several Glagolitic letters are read as one Latin letter, the row writes the first and reads the others back the same way; i writes the letter in the script's own name as that article spells it. Y is the two letters the article's table gives for yery. The second spellings for a plain keyboard (zh, ch, sh, sht, kh, ts, yu, dj) are the ones the two name columns of that table show side by side, such as Živěte and Zhivete; h is the letter ISO 9 gives for Cyrillic Х in the transliteration article's table. Code points, names and the capital and small pairs: https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/UnicodeData.txt, with Blocks.txt and DerivedAge.txt of the same version (Unicode 18.0.0), all read on 2026-10-12. Left out, five letters of the block: pe, small yus with tail, yo, shtapic, caudate chrivi. Wiktionary's table does not list pe or caudate chrivi, it and the article disagree on shtapic and yo, and its Latin letter for small yus with tail needs a mark few keyboards have. Rows: 97. The page swaps letters and translates nothing.

How it works

This Glagolitic translator swaps each Latin letter you type for a Glagolitic one, capital for capital and small for small. It changes letters, not meaning: nothing is translated, and Glagolitsa comes out as Ⰳⰾⰰⰳⱁⰾⰻⱌⰰ.

Read the full guide

Glagolitic script translator, letter by letter

The table is the scientific transliteration of Old Church Slavonic, read from Wiktionary's Glagolitic table and run backwards. Most letters pair one to one. Two can mislead: c writes ⱌ, the sound ts, and x writes ⱈ, IPA x, not ks. For a hard c type k. H writes ⱈ too, and y takes two letters, ⱏⰺ.

Letters a plain keyboard lacks

Ž, č, š and št have a letter each: ⰶ, ⱍ, ⱎ and ⱋ. Type them as zh, ch, sh and sht, the way the letters' own names are spelled for English readers: Zhivete, Cherv, Sha, Shta. Kh, ts, yu and dj work the same way.

  • J, q and w have no Glagolitic letter in the table and stay as typed. For a j sound, dj writes ⰼ, IPA dʑ.
  • Three Glagolitic letters read as i. The page writes ⰻ, the one in the script's own name.

Questions and answers

Is this an English to Glagolitic translator?

For letters, yes. Type hello and you get ⱈⰵⰾⰾⱁ, the same English word in Glagolitic letters. That suits a name. It will not give you the Old Church Slavonic word for anything.

Why do I see empty boxes?

The letters arrived and the font did not. Glagolitic sits at U+2C00 to U+2C5F, and a device with no font for that block draws boxes. The copied text is still correct and shows wherever such a font exists.

Can it turn Glagolitic into English letters?

Press Swap and paste the Glagolitic text. Each letter comes back in its scientific spelling: ⰶ as ž, ⱍ as č, ⱈ as x. Five letters of the block have no row and stay put: pe, yo, shtapic, small yus with tail and caudate chrivi.
