  • A Latin alphabet for the Ukrainian language has been proposed or imposed several times in history, but has never challenged the conventional Cyrillic Ukrainian alphabet. The Ukrainian literary language has been written with the Cyrillic alphabet, in a tradition going back to the eighth-century introduction of Christianity and the Old Church Slavonic language to Kievan Rus’. Proposals for Latinization, if not imposed for outright political reasons, have always been politically charged, and have never been generally accepted. Although some proposals to create an official Latin alphabet for Ukrainian language have been expressed lately by national intelligentsia. Technically, most have resembled the linguistically related Polish and Czech alphabets. While superficially similar to a Latin alphabet, transliteration of Ukrainian from Cyrillic into the Latin alphabet is usually not intended for native speakers, and may be designed for certain academic requirements or technical constraints. See romanization of Ukrainian. In Ukrainian: Ukrayins’ka Latynka or Latynytsia (Українська Латинка, Латиниця). Polish-influenced Latynka was known as Abecadło (Абецадло).
  • Украинская латиница — общее название для исторических и недавних проектов утверждения латинского алфавита для украинского языка. Традиционно для записи текстов украинским использовалась кириллица в разных её вариантах. Ни одно из предложений латинизировать украинскую письменность не получило широкой поддержки. Лингвистично украинская латиница (во всех её вариантах) напоминает польский и (особенно) чешский алфавит.
