Best Answer

The first real progress for teaching the language was in Arkansas. Sequoya first wrote down something that one leader said, and then had his daughter come into the room and read what he had written. This convinced those leaders to allow Sequoya to teach the writing system to them. Sequoya then transcribed a speech by one of these leaders and took it back to the eastern tribes to read it to them. This convinced them that the system should be taught. Officially the Cherokee adopted the language system in 1825.

Who adapted the greek alphabet to slavic in order to teach religion to the slavs?

Wikipedia lists nine articles relating to "Slavic alphabet", and all of them come from Saint Cyril. It appears that Cyril invented the alphabet that bears his name, rather than adapting the Greek alphabet. He did it so he could print bibles in the peoples' native languages and teach them to read, not to "teach religion". Religion is something people make up on their own. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavic_alphabet
