Alphabet

 
 

The following symbols are used to write words when creating a Brodivs’ka pysanka.  They represent the 32 letters of the Ukrainian alphabet, two diphthongs, the “myakyy znak” (softening mark) and a hyphen. To learn what sounds the Ukrainian letters make, go to this page.


The letters are arranged on this page in a table format.  For larger, individual views, go to the next page.
