They switched from Arabic script to Latin script. They literally did latinize Turkish, but they ditched the convention of 1 to 1 correspondence between lowercase and uppercase letters that is invariant across all languages that use Latin script except for German script, Turkish script and its offspring Azerbaijani script.
- cachius 1y ago> correspondence between lowercase and uppercase [not in] German script Where is it broken in German script? Do you mean small ß and capital ẞ?
- LudwigNagasena 1y agoYes, ẞ is an optional variant of ß, which is traditionally capitalized as SS.
- steezeburger 1y agoI was just saying they didn't do that with ASCII in mind. I was not saying they didn't Latinize.
