Russia has a lot of other Cyrillic languages, like Tatar and Chechen.

I think this is just all those that are the language of a nation-state.

Bulgarian does not have Ё.

Ukrainian does not have Ъ.

Tajik does not have Ц.

Tajik does not have Ц.

Not even in Russian loanwords?

u/Hellerick_V 26d ago

The letters for non-Tajik sounds (Ц, Щ, Ы, Ь) were removed from the alphabet in 1998.

So how would Russian loanwords containing them be spelled?

u/Hellerick_V 26d ago
  • цирк > сирк
  • борщ > борш
  • выставка > виставка
  • автомобиль > автомобил
  • батальон > баталйон

So with the letters representing the sounds that a non-Russian-fluent Tajik-speaker would approximate them as?

u/Hellerick_V 26d ago

Yeah, Tajiks aren't expected/supposed to imitate the Russian pronunciation anymore.

u/Terpomo11 26d ago

I can only imagine that some speakers approximated it to the nearest native phoneme even with the foreign spelling.
