    Спасибо за видео !!! Я из Аргентины и люблю русский язык, который очень интересный и сложный язык. I'm a Spanish native speaker and I speak other languages. Among them, I speak Catalan which has a strong letter L. That's why I can easily pronounce the Russian л. Russian Л is stronger than Spanish / English L. Good job !!! THANKS !!!

    There are actually many dialects of English that regularly use the hard L sound. The first that come to mind are from Scotland. Certain dialects around NYC do this as well. There are other realizations that remind one of the progress of the Polish hard l (ł) from л to /w/, such as southern England final L, and even medial realizations, like the uvular L we hear among certain members of the American media, Tom Brokaw being a great example of such.
    L is a great sound in its many aspects. Scottish Gaelic actually has three different Ls!

    Not really that hard. My teacher made it easy. Л is pronounced like the English word "Love" with the tongue inside the mouth, and Ль is pronounced as in the English word "table" or "pool". with the tongue slightly outside the mouth attached to the upper teeth. Pretty easy if you use English equivalents. Just like the seemingly difficult-for-English-speakers "gd" sound in где can easily be pronounced if English speakers compare it to the English "big dog" which they can easily do. After all, we don't say "Biga doga", so why say "ga dyeh"?

    I’ve seen dozens of videos on this subject and the problem for English speakers always comes down to the words ‘hard’ and ‘soft.’ These descriptors mean nothing unless you understand that they refer to palettes. In English, there’s nothing inherently ‘hard’ or ‘soft’ about any of these palettelized sounds.

    I find it somewhat bizarre to name the L-variants "soft" vs "hard". Isn't that just conventional, to please the writing system? Because phonologically, it seems to me, there's no justification for it.

    • @ymmv99

      The L is written the same, no matter how it's pronounced. This video is about the correct pronunciation of the L sounds.
      The L is pronounced differently depending on the vowel after it. In the examples with a hard L, there were normal vowels (А, О, У, Ы, and Э) following it, while with the example words with a soft L, there were soft vowels ( Я, Ё, Ю, И, and Е) following the letter L.

      @@ymmv99 Oh, I see, I thought it was about the soft versus hard signs, my bad, so thanks a lot! Still neither of both variants imply any plosives or tension or stop of airflow or voicelessness, but rather the "soft" variant is palatalized while the "hard" one isn't. Then again the chosen nomenclature seems to be conventional and standard in Russian phonetics. What do you think?
