What is the Cyrillic Alphabet?

The Cyrillic alphabet is a writing system used for many languages. These include Russian, Ukrainian, Bulgarian, and Serbian. It's similar to the Latin alphabet we use for English, but it has some different letters.

Where Does Teh Come From?

The letter Teh has a long history! It comes from the ancient Greek alphabet. Specifically, it was inspired by the Greek letter Tau, which looks like Τ or τ. Just like Tau, Teh represents the "t" sound. It is also similar to the Roman letter T, which we use in English. So, you can think of Teh as the Cyrillic version of our letter T.
