Abstract

Many works have been written about the creation of the Armenian alphabet. Naturally, the prevailing opinion was that it was created by Mesrop Mashtots. There can be no second opinion on this. He actually created an alphabet, but based on existing Armenian letters. The modern alphabet was not created from scratch, working on the symbols of Daniel, giving them a new form, because there were more sounds and the letters expressing them were absent. This is what Mashtots created with the help of Sahak and the high will of the king. However, what is important for us is not so much how the alphabet was created, but that it was thanks to its creation that the Armenian language came to life, they began to study Armenian in schools again, which, in turn, contributed to the development of Christianity, because the Bible was translated into Armenian. In our opinion, the renaissance of the Armenian alphabet contributed to its revival after the interrupted phase of the development of Armenian culture and contributed to its subsequent development with renewed vigor.
