Summary/Abstract: The problem of the 6 phoneme and its graphic representation or lack ofpresentation in the alphabet of the Republic of Macedonia has upset the linguistsand public figures for more than half a century. The issue is political rather thanlinguistic. The 6 phoneme exists in the language, but it has no graphic sign as it isviewed as Bulgarian. Due to party politics the traditions of Cyril and Methodius,and Kliment and Naum are infringed upon, and the actual literary and popularpronunciation is substituted.
