Description
In Cyrillic fonts there are two main types of fonts. The first type of those are sometimes called Bulgarian type or handwritten cursive or classic. The second type is Russian type or press (machine) type or Muscovite. The names are not that much important in my opinion. You can differentiate those two types by looking at д or the л letters. The first type has triangular д and triangular л. And the second type has flat д and flat л. Also some of the other letters are different; like г and к.
When searching at https://fonts.google.com/ there is no filter for those two types of fonts. It would be nice to have filter for those two types.
Some examples of "original" Cyrillic font types:
* [Pasifico](https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Pacifico?lang=bg_Cyrl&script=Cyrl)
* [Poiret One](https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Poiret+One?lang=bg_Cyrl&script=Cyrl)
* [Sofia Sans Condensed](https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Sofia+Sans+Condensed?lang=bg_Cyrl&script=Cyrl)
* [Ledger](https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Ledger?lang=bg_Cyrl&script=Cyrl)
* PT Serif BG Beta Regular
Some examples of "Muscovite" Cyrillic font types:
* [EB Garamond](https://fonts.google.com/specimen/EB+Garamond?sort=alpha&lang=bg_Cyrl&script=Cyrl)
* [Liter](https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Liter?sort=alpha&lang=bg_Cyrl&script=Cyrl)
* [Roboto Mono](https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Roboto+Mono?sort=alpha&lang=bg_Cyrl&script=Cyrl)
