# Likewise, đɛ́ty is near-unanimously believed to be derived from a Cyrillic source, with most mainstream theories putting forward [[w:Tse (Cyrillic)|tse]] (ц) or [[w:Che (Cyrillic)|che]] (ч) as probable sources. Less supported theories instead propose [[w:Djerv|djerv]] (ꙉ) due to its alphabetical order being nearer to that of đɛ́ty. Djerv has also been proposed as a source for cɛ́ty as a more fringe position, alongside an adaptation of a [[wikt:yer|yer]] (ь~ъ).

# A popular yet unsupported theory proposes [[w:Gothic alphabet|Gothic]] [[wikt:𐍁|𐍁]] (90) based wholly on its similar form. This comes with a host of unexplained inconsistencies, such as its sudden shift in alphabetical and numeric order, and its missing usage as a numeral. Others point to [[wikt:𐍊|𐍊]] (900) as another Gothic source, but those are even less supported and outright rejected.

# Cɛ́ty is also sometimes argued to be a simplification of a ligature, such as {{lang|gthv|sc=Gthv|tj}} (tj), though this is not backed my historic manuscripts.
