Strange. Why you talk about η but don't talk about β? They should go in pair. They were "Beta" and "Eta" in antique times but changed to "Vita" and "Ita" somewhere in medieval times. This is the reason why russian letter В represents sound V. Alfabet in Russian would be "Alfavit" for this reason.
@@mattslupek7988, yes. Kinda. I learned that in russian so I can't say for sure what is the best analogy for English. In russian I have been told that Greek Η is full analog of our И. Makes sense because our И originated from the Greek Η. And we also have letter Н witch originated from Greek Ν. For some reason in both cases middle line turned counter clockwise (Greek Η -> our И, Greek Ν -> our Н). We can see the process happening gradually in the medieval texts. But why it happened we don't know.

In the Greek language we have two (2) letters that are pronounced as E. The first is the letter Epsilon and the second is Alpha and Iota together (αι). Two letters pronounced as o, these are Omicron (o) and Omega (ω). And five(5) pronounced as i, these are: Iota (ι), Ypsilon (υ), Itta (η), Epsilon together with Iota (ει), and Omicron together with Iota (οι), which is mainly used when we write in the plural person. But there are also some exceptions. The exceptions are when in Epsilon-Iota (ει), we have two dots above Iota (εϊ), then it is read separately. The same applies to the Omicron-Iota (οϊ), these dots are called (solvents). Another exception is the letter Ypsilon, which is sometimes pronounced as beta (b), pronounced like the English (v), for example: the word Mavro means Black, and is spelled (Μαύρο), Note: If the Ypsilon contains solvents, it is pronounced separately, for example word formaldehyde = (Latin: formalde-ΰ-di) and spelled φορμαλδεΰδη. As you see it is additionally emphasized.
Hi, I study Ancient Greek at school. We learn two lower cases for the letter Beta : β at the beginning of a word and ϐ anywhere else. Has the latter form disappeared over time in Modern Greek? I can't find it mentionned anywhere.
English has an equivalent archaic symbol to theta called thorn, it fell out of use because the first printing presses didn't have that symbol. A Y would sometime's be used in it's place because they looked similar, that's why you see old signs that say "Ye Olde Shoppe" which is pronounced "The Old Shop".
Lowercase numbers evolved originally as a variant of traditional block letters that were faster to write with a quill when copying books or writing fast otherwise known as a miniscule cursive. Most cursives now are ligatures where letters are written together.

You have done a very good job. As a Greek thank you! In Greek we have 2 o's (ο, ω) 2 e's (ε, αι) 5 i's (ι, η, υ, ει, οι) But αι, ει, οι can have different accent if we put solvents for example αί, εϊ, οϊ αι οι ει αϊ οί εϊ These have different accent
In ancient Greek the letter σ is used at the beginning of the word(for example σωτηρια), while the letter ς has the same pronunciation of the σ but is used at the end of the word(for example κρατος).

Hey, I don’t know if it’s deliberate or a mistake but the difference between capital and small theta is not whether the line touches the shape, it’s that capital theta is almost completely a circle, while small theta is an oval.
I just invented that "Alphabet" word is from Greek. Bc "Alpha" and "Beta" and these are first letters so they made it "Alpha-Bet" but "A" from "Beta" is cut If i say it not correctly then it means that Im too young to know the truth
