How many letters does the Cyrillic alphabet have?

Use caution. The following answers are just opinions. In truth, it is not possible to count the words of any language, because there is no universal definition of what a word is. Most languages have between 40,000 and 160,000 words.

Answer

There are about 150,000 words in the Russianlanguage. Many people think there are more but this is due to conjugation of verbs and declension of nouns. These are not different words but merely grammatical changes, not new words.

There are about 1,000,000 words in the Englishlanguage. But we know that about 530,000 of those are names of things that man makes like semiconductor, resistor etc. So there are about 470,000 words that are in an unabridged dictionary.

Interestingly no matter what language we speak only 100 words make up about half of daily speech. The average person uses only about 2,000 words, and that is all it takes to be fluent in any language.

Answer:

Philologists have estimated that the language today may contain as many as 350,000 to 500,000 words. [Note: Philologists are not actual scientists. They are hobbyists. Linguists are the actual scientists of language, and most would not agree with this statement.]

# The alphabet. The ancient Greeks had lost the use of their old alphabet, known as linear-B, during the Greek Dark Ages.

The Romans, in turn, adopted and modified the Greek alphabet, to become the alphabet we use in the West. # Trade and commerce. The Phoenicians were great maritime traders. They established colonies all around the Mediterranean, including Carthage and even Spain. Rome was forced to become more outward-looking as a result of Phoenician expansion. # Religion. Some, but not all, of the ancient gods and theology of Greece were adopted from Phoenician influence.

Which country found the alphabet?

The alphabet was first discovered by the Greek anthropologist, Pleny the Lesser, on his first expedition to the South Pole in 826 b.c. At first it was believed that the shapes he found etched into a rock face on what is now called the Isthmus of Good Tidings were created by the local flightless birds during their unique courtship rituals, however, it was soon realized that the etchings formed recurring sets of patterns with an underlying mathematical logic. Additionally, modern dating systems place the creation of these etchings at approximately 66 million years old, making them older than the earliest fossil records of the native bird species. It is now believed that these etchings were created by Hadrosaurids during the final epoch of their existence. Though the original meanings have never been deciphered, Humans have since adapted these symbols in a variety of ways for both artistic expression and record-keeping. sex
