Is that "minimum"?
palordrolap@fedia.io · 14 pts · 1y
Yes. And we can read that because we've a passing familiarity with Latin cursive. I assume Cyrillic readers can make sense of the Russian example, even if we're clueless.

It usually looks like this, with the dotted i's, which is a lot more legible.

nesc@lemmy.cafe · 33 pts · 1y
Cyrilllic is bulgarian in origin, but I think this picture describes eastern asian scripts (there are other cool ones among those, like tamil).

The transition is still undergoing. Takes a while to switch.
