The word glagolitic comes from New Latin glagoliticus and Croatian glagoljica, from Old Church Slavonic в°ів°ѕв°°в°ів±Ѓв°ѕв±Џ ( glagolЕ), meaning 'utterance' or 'word.' The name was not created until centuries after the script's creation. 3.2 Pre-Glagolitic Slavic writing systems.Glagolitic also spread in Bohemia with traces in Pannonia, Moravia and Russia. The Glagolitic alphabet was preserved only by the clergy of Croatia and Dalmatia to write Church Slavonic until the early 19th century. The Cyrillic alphabet (which borrowed some letters from the Glagolitic alphabet) was developed at the Ohrid Literary School in the late 9th century. Both the Glagolitic and Cyrillic alphabets were used until 13th-14th century in Bulgaria. In 886, Clement of Ohrid (also known as Kliment), Naum, Gorazd, Angelar and Sava arrived in the First Bulgarian Empire where they were warmly accepted by the Tsar Boris I of Bulgaria.

Around the same time, Svatopluk I, following the interests of the Frankish Empire, prosecuted the students of Cyril and Methodius and expelled them from Great Moravia. In 885, Pope Stephen V issued a papal bull to restrict spreading and reading Christian services in languages other than Latin or Greek. As the words of that language could not be easily written by using either the Greek or Latin alphabets, Cyril decided to invent a new script, Glagolitic, which he based on the local dialect of the Slavic tribes from the Byzantine theme of Thessalonica.ДЄfter the deaths of Cyril and Methodius, the Glagolitic alphabet ceased to be used in Moravia for political or religious needs. The brothers decided to translate liturgical books into the contemporary Slavic language understandable to the general population (now known as Old Church Slavonic). He and his brother Saint Methodius were sent by the Byzantine Emperor Michael III in 863 to Great Moravia to spread Christianity among the West Slavs in the area. It is generally agreed to have been created in the 9th century by Saint Cyril, a monk from Thessaloniki.
