  • Alphabet is where any language starts! it's very important to understand it and to know how to use and pronounce every particular letter. Russian Alphabet is very different from English and many students suffer with understanding it :( But not anymore! Just 10 minutes and you will be a Master of Russian Alphabet :)

    Really easy to watch and Chris has a very nice way of putting the information over, but . . . to quickly. Please allow us to absorb on letter for maybe five secs after the examples before moving on. It would be a much more effective lesson and it would prevent having to hit the pause button after each letter. Otherwise, really great and watchable.

      If you go to the setting gear icon you can see to set it at a slower speed. Sure she sounds different but that is what I do and it works. Ultimately, it would be cool to have two videos - one like this as the primer, then a slower one for practice.

    An easy way I use when learning a different alphabet (native Canadian) is using the alphabet to spell out English words. So spell "computer" but use Cyrillic, or recently, Farsi letters. Then I get used to how it looks and sounds but with words I know. It's kind of a phonetic spelling. Does that make sense?

      Agreed, I initially transliterated for Ancient Greek when trying to get my head around that alphabet so will be doing the same for this

      hey the roman missionarys had to come up with a alphabet so they made a phonetic one and a lot of words didn't exist in eastern slavic so they used their phonetic letters to create words

      Well, yeah, some of them latin, some greek, some tatar's, some german, some holland, some finnish, some french, some italian.
      But since we loan them, it became russian words and it highly integrated in russian grammar rules and prononciation and so on.
      So... it's russian.

    Ъ is like apostrophe - '

    • @MikeGreenwood51
      @MikeGreenwood51 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Do you mean like an accent over a letter but in reverse. IE rather than to accent the letter it functions to lower or reduce to almost silent? Yes some apostrophes do show where letters are abridged or not shown. But the apostrophe can also be used to show plurals ending in 's'. It is also used to show possession. The boss's house. Mr.Chang's house. A woman's love.
      When teaching about the use of an apostrophe in English some teachers teach the rules of the apostrophe can be confusing. Being 60 years of age there are still some who confuse the rules of use whilst others accept some confusion is as there are two ways in some cases and no definitive rule either way. So just saying the soft sign in Russian is like the apostrophe in English could lead to more confusion as the soft sign behaves as the apostrophe in only a few cases as far as I know whilst in other cases it does not. IE the soft sign is not showing possession (or is it?). So therefore in those cases the soft sign does not behave as the apostrophe in English (The 'Es' possessive Apostrophe). In 'The boss's house it is not showing omission but possession and that the final third 's' is pronounced (almost accented). As boss is a word ending in one or two eses. So the apostrophe shows there is a third.
      Yes in some cases the soft sign acts like the apostrophe in English but not all.

    @7:50 you teach Russian language in professional way - thank you. By the way, this letter at time frame starting at 7:50 maybe called a sound modifier, it is not a letter by itself. We have this kind of sound modifiers in Arabic, we call them HARAKATUL TASHKIL. It is not enough to listen to your amazing videos once, but repeating them few times will provide better understanding to how those letters interrelate to one another. Again, thank you.

    I think it's a little bit harder for english speakers to learn the sounds of the letters in russian because they don't really have accents in their alphabet. Like for me (Brazilian) we have those (lhê, nhê etc) i've been learning Russian for a couple months and I am able now to pronunciate. Just a little hard to memorize. :) Спасибо!

    Есть одна важная тонкость: "вторник" пишется как "вторник", но вот произносится как "фторник", в отличие от английского, где "v" как "f", если мне не изменяет память, не произносится нигде. То есть "в" в русском языке - это может быть "v", "wh", "f", "gh" и "ph" в английском, а не только "v".
