Mongolia is also gonna reintroduce the old Mongolic script again, leaving the Cyrillic alphabet.

Personally, I think Kazakhstan should instead switch to the old turkic (orkhon) alphabet.
The sounds would fit, and it would make the language much more culturally interesting.

12:59 This letter Ч almost looks like how most people would write the number 4 to me; I also learned that the Russian word for "four" actually starts with this letter: четыре
Oh, that's cool, i never noticed that
4ерт
Nice noticing
That's a coincidence to me.
Russians actually do use the number 4 when they are texting. Another good example is the letter Ы which can replaced with q. I personally use "q" as Ы but i have seen it done differently too. So, the word четыре would be typed as 4etqre in latin script. And also they use w for ш. Example: ebanawka.

It’s also my favorite. It sounds like a big flying bug and looks like one. Bug=Жук
to me, it reminds me of Adidas or Nike or something
There was a short lived joke. At some point Kim Kardashian presented her new logo that was made out of two letters “K” joined in the back. So for a lot of Russians it really resembled a «Ж». So what’s the punchline you may ask? Жопа (smth like a turdass) in Russian also starts with «Ж».

I'm learning Russian and this helped me understand Ь, Ъ, И, Й and especially Ы better than actual serious tutorials.
Fun fact: the letter Ъ in Bulgarian has a sound and it is like mix of ы + а like you are saying rubber.
Being Serbian from a country that uses Cyrillic and Latin at the same time I am thankful that I can read two scripts. It helps in understanding more languages like Russian, Ukraine, Bulgarian etc.

i still write it like drawing a cat's asshole
I know right? first time I tried to write it it just looked.... strange and deformed
Been to Georgia in april 2019, noticed that. Almost nobody from the age of about 35 and younger speaks russian, apart from waiters. What i found amusing is that i've had young people come up to me in the street and start asking shit in Georgian, which i don't speak, and neither do i look even remotely southern. Still a mistery to me what they could have wanted.
Anyhow, i absolutely loved it there, it's a most beautiful country. Will definitely come back.
Kudos to Georgia!
One of the most unique sounding languages on this planet!
just write a ever so slightly widened latin letter X and put a line in the middle
now its a ж
As a Pole I wish we used a dual alphabet system like Serbia because I find Cyrillic easier to write and it shortens word length because I don't have to spend my life writing dzszcz.. .etc
I always have a good laugh trying to read polish. Cos of cyrillic we have this thing reading every letter as it should sound (as a joke reading anything latin-ish). So, like… дзсзкз) (oh god I hope you Poles make fun of this as well)
Polish would be unique if it use cyrillic because it still uses Yus letters, which are archaic since Polish is the only Slavic language that retains archaic nasal sounds
@@MisterIncog I am not really sure what you mean lol
@@Natadangsa I guess Polish is unique in a number of ways anyway, as well as the Yus vowels, there are 3 s sounds (s,ś,sz) and 3 z sounds (z,ź,ż). My hope would be by expanding a Cyrillic alphabet to accommodate all Polish sounds, it will allow for some of our word lengths to shorten
@@aleksm3401 s, ś, sz, z, ź, and ż can be easily replicated (с, сь, ш, з, зь, ж). But what truly differentiate it, are the ą and ę.
Since those are archaic sounds, this is what they would look like in Cyrillic:
ą = ѫ
ę = ѧ
ią/ją = ѭ
ię/ję = ѩ
So the word "Piękno" would be "Пѩкно", Częstochowa would be "Чѧстохова", "Gołąbki" would be "Ґолѫбки", and so on

The best way to familiarize yourself with the Cyrillic alphabet is to learn Russian proper nouns that are transliterated from English. Ex: Нью-Йорк, Калифорния,
Аризона,
Вирджиния, etc. These are all English proper nouns that English speakers are all familiar with, and they would have a lot of fun learning the Cyrillic letters this way.

@@Winter_Purlieu It's so deceptively familiar once I get to reading it naturally. юзаю sounds like pretty much the same word English and Spanish use. It's Indo-European, right? The case system is also easy, because German has taught me how the 4 basic grammatical function cases work in a nominative-accusative aligned language, right? All Russian does differently is get rid of articles and add the word "with" as a suffix, right? Almost every noun predictably tells you its gender with the vowel ending, no need to memorize a hellish list like in German or French! Where it gets hard is when you get into *why* nouns need to always tell you their gender by themselves. A lack of articles doesn't seem like a big deal at first, but when you're in the third declension, you still have to get the noun and adjective to agree, and one of them's irregular in whatever dialect your Armenian taxi driver made up, but he won't understand you if you don't figure out how he messed it up and mess it up in the same way...

after hearing you talk about how you learned english with gta v I was inspired to try and learn russian. I've always found the look and sound of it appealing. so thank you for this video and keep going with the videos I really dig your channel!
Hello Roman, I thank you for helping me understand words like "ь" "ъ" and "ы" since I am just self-teaching myself Russian this video helped me understand how to pronounce "э" and "ё" as well, Thank you for making this vid.
ололо, пора отсюда съёбывать.
ь and ы are useful in those vowels.
There's normal vowels and modified
Normal : А О Э И У Ы
Modified : Я Ё Е Ї Ю ❌
(Ї is actually in Ukrainian where Э Е И Ы are different but whatever)
All of the modified letters are pronounced differently in different contexts. If they're in the beginning of a word or after a vowel they're pronounced like "Y+normal vowel" : "YA YO YE YI YU"/"ЙА ЙО ЙЭ ЙИ ЙУ"
But if they're after a consonant they're different. They soften the consonant as if there's a Ь after it and then the unmodified letter. So for example РЕ is like РЬ Э. But the Ъ is the letter that cancels this and makes it so that it's still pronounced as Y+unmodified letter and the consonant isn't softened. ДЪЕ is like Д ЙЕ and not ДЬ Е
The Turkmen language was also Cyrillic until their leader Saparmurat Niyazov aka Turkmenbashi (Turkmen for Father of the Turkmen) reintroduced the Latin script of the language in 1993. This was part of his steps to keep Turkmenistan isolated.
Well it worked I haven't met a Turkmen on the internet, neither heard something in the news about Turkmenistan ever. I just know their current leader is a lot into horses, weird Guinness records, pretending to know how to play a guitar and lifts some type of golden rod to show that he is a strong leader.

Почему на англе Cyril он произносит как Цырил?
@@danivory7122 Ну вообще в английском "Cyrillic" произносится [səˈrilik], ну вот такое произношение устоялось, я думаю, тут удивляться нечему, и вот это уже звучит не как "Кириллик", а как "Сыриллик", ну а то что там вместо "s" сказал "c" может быть из-за его русского акцента, ну или он сам не знал как точно произносить, а возможно ещё, что тебе просто послышалось.
Roman be teaching us Russian so he can speak his home language and make it easy
I don't get your joke or something? )
Roman, the “zh” is the most beautiful letter visually! It looks like a TREE! And the resonanance. Oy.
For years I have written "Ksa ksa ksa ksa" whenever I write to my russian friends....
Ahahah i feel sorry for u :'D
... wait what
did u write it in russian?
if you did *what letter did you use to get ksa ksa*
I'm a native Greek and Russian speaker so I have the "complete starter pack "
jealous!
Yeah, the Β (vita), Ρ (ro) and Χ (chi) is also pronounced in Greek the same ways. In addition some other letters that exists in Cyrillic and (modern) Greek alphabet but not in Latin.

as I am Greek, this makes much more sense than the latin alphabet and I also now want to learn Russian
Yes FINALLY Im playing Half-Life: Alyx, many things in the world are in russian
Half-Life 2 was actually the reason I learned the russian alphabet lmao
There are a lot signs that doesn't make sense in the game. I am Russian, so u can trust me. Sorry for my mistakes
There's not only Russian. You may find expression, like "Не пипай Опасно за живот". It's Bulgarian. One contains Cyrillic alphabet too. Probably, you may face Ukrainian words.But I'm not sure about last.
@nihilismful you speak Russian like a Russian would lol
i almost thought that you were Russian till I read the last sentence
The setting of Half Life 2's City 17 is in Sofia Bulgaria, so there should not be much Russian in that game.
i've been learning russian since 2014, it kills me to see some edgelord spell their name "яомаи" and in my mind i just read "Yaomai"
Tbh, Yaomai could be read in two variations: Яомаи and Яомай. Depends on how this word even pronounced on english
i read it as "yo-MY"
Yeah, what cracks me up is when people try and write Russian using Latin characters, for example when they use a Russian name in the news and it's completely garbled or words like сегодня become segodnya - wtf is that? The funniest ones by far are when Russian songs are put into Latin characters and people sing them, my sister learned a Russian hymn and I almost shit myself laughing when she sung it.
I taught myself to read Cyrillic my senior year of high school, I'd write in it during classes, one of my teachers called me a commie. God bless America.
A mongolian buddhist monk: yeah, I'm a commie.
Lmao. Which year was that?
Last year lmao
@@kiandenison-beatty3831 What a jackass.
I'm cackling-
Fun fact
I’ve been watching actual russian
Teachers videos and didn’t learn much
And this guy helped me learn the whole alphabet in almost one try💀
5:25 "Well Russian starts with ABV. Why?" it's because it stands for alcohol by volume, they were drinking vodka as they were writing the alphabet 😂
Dan Lyle no bcs they dont have an exact "c"
@@inox1ck I understand, they use с for a soft c/s and к for a hard c/k. My comment was a bit of a joke about how Russians like vodka, and how it's a bit of a coincidence that ABV is both the start of the Russian alphabet (АБВ) and a term for measuring the amount of alcohol in drinks
In Hebrew it's similar (AB"V"G) and in Greek it's (ABG)
Because in Greek language pronunciation of the Beta letter turned from "B" to "V". Latin borrowed this letter before Cyrillic and kept the old pronunciation.
Only to me "Ю" looks like something in Korean?
Not the only one. Plus, N. Korea borders Russia so coincidence or influence?
backwards 어
Yeah I remember thinking that before learning Russian too lmao
I am a Slav and I was under the impression that it looked like a 10 if it was connected
@@saulthechicanootaku it's not a Korean influence. Originally it was written reversed and was a combination of Greek omicron-iota
I‘m from Russia and I‘ve got no idea why I clicked on this video, but I liked it. As we like to say it here - хахаха
After Roman taught me how to read Russian I read that entire post he showed on screen at 0:16.

I'm sure you regret.
@@leonidsosnovsky815 i dont, tbh
Yes, I also read it all
@@darkhorsed well, at least you didn't understand the meaning. I do, and that's why I regret. Typical shitposting.
I was actually watching different videos on Russian alphabet an hour ago... then you come up with this gem out of nowhere, thanks man! Поздрав из Србије! :D
I'm doing this for my Russian girlfriend.
She has yet to date me. 😂
Lol same. Maybe she's Ukrainian or Bielo-russian, I don't know yet
@@ricois3 not belorusian for sure if you'll keep spelling her nationality like this, we get really angry when someone misspells it! (especially russians)
@@ka-bq6dl Извините, I speak French and it's how we write it
Just order a different girl through the mail.
@nihilismful Wow. Congratulations my guy. Best wishes to the both of you.
I self-taught myself Cyrillic alphabet back in High School but I was always confused and perplexed about those two sound-indication symbols, I wasn't able to find a good source about them back then to understand it and even afterwards I wasn't able to understand it, thanks to your video the mystery has finally been revealed to me
Thanks man
I'm a native Russian speaker and I sit here watching to this guy explaining me the Russian alphabet without any regrets.
So basically to write "No" in Russian i have to write "The" in Dutch.
Awesome!
Now I know why “cyka” is pronounced the way it is

@Mohamed Moothy Azwar чего чегоо?
this video is really helpful.I'm studying Russian and the Cyrillic script is kicking my ass more so now because I found out how it's printed and how it's written by hand differs >_
I like making fun of the usage of Cyrillic letters for only aesthetic purposes, by trying to write how that would be pronounced.
For example:
“Тнis is iисоггест”
Tnidz idz iisoggest
6оо9 6уесс, вут астуалли ио.
I am from Sweden and Trying to learn Russian, the "э" is almost exactly the same as swedish "Ä ä" could be helpful for the English speaker here 😅 and "й" is "Jå"
👍
Ой-ой-ой
Yeah, as in "Агнета Фэльтског"
I'm a Russian speaker who studied Swedish at the university. I think, along the way you'll be surprised how much in common the 2 languages have. Not really a lot but you wouldn't expect anything at all considering the languages are barely related lol.
Whenever I see faux Cyrillic, I instinctively read it with the Russian pronunciation, even though I am a native English speaker.
Like, if I see someone write "ЯUSSIA" I will read it as "YAUSSIA" even though it is probably not mean't to say that.
Same here. Native Indonesian speaker who mastered Russian and Serbian Cyrillic.
@@Natadangsa what made you learn Serbian?
@@zucced2087 Well, not the language, but the writing system. I've always been interested in Cyrillic. And when I mastered Russian Cyrillic, I was intrigued to learn more types of Cyrillic from other languages whether it is Slavic or non-Slavic. And Serbian Cyrillic in particular fascinates me due to it having a letter to spell a Nj and Ć sound (Њ & Ћ) which is very close to my native language, and a single letter for a J sound in which you only need to write Џ instead of Дж as they do in Russian.
That and also my deep admiration towards the USSR, Warsaw Pact countries, and SFRJ. Since I follow many of their ideals and the fact that Soekarno was very close with Jосип Броз Тито.
The pinnacle is the passport from one (or more) of the Jason Bourne films.
it says "Lshtshfum" for Kiniaev and "ashf" for Foma.

"What's ya name?"

I knew a few letters because we had a fridge that had Минск (Minsk) written on it when I was little and it bugged me so much that I asked my grandma to lend me her old Russian dictionary so I could decode it... This was back at the end of the 90s.
The early Cyrillic alphabet was commissioned by Tsar Simeon the Great of Bulgaria in the 9th century AD to replace the Glagolitic script that Cyril and Methodius created which would serve as the basis of the Russian alphabet and basically most other slavic alphabets.
Although some sources claim that it was actually Saint Clement of Ohrid that actually invented the Cyrilic alphabet,it was most likely developed in the Preslav Literary School (the then capital of the First Bulgarian Empire).
Honestly I’d say russian is a bit more easier to learn than Greek Το ελληνικό έχει κάποια περίεργα γράμματα...

Greek is a lot easier to pronounce than Russian or English , because you read and pronounce exactly what is written
Greek is such a beautiful language

“If it was vice-versa, we wouldn’t understand English either.”

"Л" can be wrote as an ''A'', with no line in the middle, too

Russian "Y" is pronounced like the Welsh "Y". Other than that, Welsh isn't very Russian ;-)
@right ok That would depend on how you pronounce "Birmingham" ;-)
But Scottish does!
Surprisingly enough, Scottish accent is quite familiar and understandable for russian ears for no reason!
@@user-qt9vn1yj8x It sounds more similar to Russian due to it being a lot flatter as well as having the trilled "r", but it's still very distant from our accent.
Speaking of Welsh, the best way to pronounce the щ should is by saying WelSH SHEEp.
