  • Ё = JO
  • И = I
  • О = O
  • У = U
  • Ы = Y (rear -i)

Soft and hard character

  • Ъ = (hard character)
  • Ь = (soft character)

Before the Russian orthographic reform in 1918, the hard sign was used as the suffix for all nouns ending in a consonant. The reform abolished the use of the "unnecessary" sign, but the sign is still used to make pronunciation easier to distinguish syllables in some words (eg подъезд pod'ezd = rappu, объявление ob'jivlenie = notification). There are about 140 words in the Russian language with a hard sign. Russia is the only Slavic language using the Cyrillic alphabet that has a hard sign in the alphabet.

The soft mark is used much more. Soft sign dissolve that is, softens the consonant preceding it. The dissolved sound is formed by pulling the tongue backwards in the mouth so that the palate is used for pronunciation. When making a loud noise, the tongue touches the teeth. Dilution can be important in the meaning of a word. For example, compare the words ель (jel ', spruce) and ел (jel, I ate). The soft sign is found in the alphabet of all Cyrillic Slavic languages.

Emphasis

The weight of a word in Russian can be in any syllable. Here you should be careful, because the meaning of a word can change with the weight of the word. Weightless o sounds like a, e.g. molo - malakó (milk) .Weightless e is pronounced as i, e.g. ''нести '' - nisti (carry).
