How did the Russian language come about? Did people immediately begin to speak it? What? Prince Vladimir? 1000 years ago also spoken it. Hello, my name is Vyla Pamiivovich. Saint Cyril and Methodius seem to come up with the alphabet, but how to come up with it? So that everyone says, yes, great, we will write with such letters. Who are these Cyril and Methodius? These are two brothers from the Byzantine city of Tessaloniki. In 851 Cyril sent a mission from the emperor to the court of the Seresine Caliph. That is apparent Abbasid Caliph Mutovaki. In 856 Logathids Tiaukthist, who was the patron saint of Constantine, was killed. Constantine, together with his disciples, Clannant, Knome and Anguilaris, came to the Polychrommonistry on Mount Olympus, where his brother Methodius was Abbot. In this monastery, a group of like-minded people form around Constantine and Methodius, and the idea of creating the Slavic alphabet was born. This is how the first version of the Slavic alphabet appeared, that is called Glagolica. But later, when it became clear that such an alphabet was complicated, the letters were replaced so that they resumble it the Greek. And they named the alphabet in honor of Cyril Kyrillica. However, at the beginning of the second millennium, all Slavs could understand each other without an interpreter. The Russian language then is a group of dialects of all Eastern Slavs. Santis are now inclined to call it old Russian. After all, its descendants of equal rights are Ukrainian, Belarusian and Russian self. In ancient Russia, there were already such clear words to us as Nyeba, Na'est, Kalbasa, Nidabor, Piva, Borsi, Drusba. But there were still no such familiar words as Vodka, Yesli, or Naplimir. Old Russian grammar was very different from the current one. We see its fragments in many expressions. But what have never happened? Is Russian nouns beginning with the letter A? And there are no Russian words with the letter Fuh, either. Shafran, Nyevht, Kifir, Muftar, Kavtan, Levhak. All such words are bored.
