Comment on Some of the most important Symbols for Orthodox Christians in The Eastern Orthodox Church – Symbols in the Eastern Orthodox Christian Faith (Eastern Orthodox Symbolism) and Christian Symbolism in the Roman Catholic Church (Symbolism in Western Catholicism) by C.
It will be easier for everyone to understand if you refer to the letters as cyrillic instead of church slavonic. The cyrillic X is actually the letter “H” in English, and the P is actually the letter “R” in English. And Christ is pronounced Hree-stos, hence the abbreviated spelling of the name. So really, XP just means HR (if you translate the cyrillic letters into the English latin alphabet).
