I am from Mexico and I have just started to learn Русский. I loved how you explained hard and soft sound, it was crystal clear. Muchas gracias Natasha! 😇
Thank you very much for your comment! I wish you good luck in learning Russian! 🥰🥰🥰
Balshoya Spasibo. :)
I live in Brazil Very good your class of inglês i m learn russo
@@user-zf9us1ud1y Muito Obrigado.
Saludos a nuestros hermanos de Rusia! Mucha suerte!
You are speaking very clear english so it is very easy to understand.
This is a smart way to learn the Russian alphabet, I like it.
пожелайте мне удачи в изучении русского языка! ☺️
The best Russian teaching videos, precise and clear. Inlike your teaching very much. I am from America and plan to live in Russia for the whole summer. Hope to meet you in person in Moscow 😊
I was very surprised to see that the Russian language is very similar to Swedish. Most words and letters we pronounce very alike, and hard and easy vowels are very similar too. I’m really happy that it’s not going be a very hard and difficult journey in learning Russian as a Swedish Person!
Class! Now I am also very surprised! 😀 I wish you success in your learning! 🥰
I’ve been teaching myself mandarin Chinese for the past three years. At least Russian has an alphabet. Mandarin hanzi is terrifying.
आप की पढ़ाने की कला की मै दिल से प्रशंसा करता है।

Спасибо за комментарий! 😊
As a Kurd I would say It’s not that difficult to pronounce the Cyrillic Alphabet at some point because we have alot of similar sounds. Thanks for providing us this awesome video ❤️
This is wonderful! Thank you very much for watching and commenting! 🥰
I'm Kurdish and I find it really difficult
Do you have an alphabet as a Kurd?
@@ertugrulozturk5433 I’m from iraq (not kurd) and our accent has a lot from the Kurdish language. Yes, they have their own alphabet a little different to arabic alphabet. As an iraqi it’s easy to pronounce some stuff. Actually I’d say German & Russian remind me a lot of Kurdish.
You are teaching nice mam
Por fin cursos de rusa
Very nicely teaching your language 🙏🏽💐
मुझे 3-4 शब्द बहुत कठिन लगे, आपने मगर अच्छे से पढाया, घन्यवाद 🙏🏼✨
So far this is the best channel I encountered to learn Russian. Thank you Natasha. In Arabic, soft and hard letters are totally separate letters, not two versions of the same letter.
🎉🎉 Privet , Natasha...
need Cyrillic keys ..
thank You ..
Pls Natasha make more videos !
I find very easy to learn with your videos. Thank you.
What a great teacher.
Awesome thanks ❤, I thought Russian was hard but you proved me wrong !
Привет, всем ! 🌞😉👍
Здравствуй, Наташа !
Я рад знакомству с тобой !
Интересный урок у тебя получился !
Ты умничка !
You are doing great work very clear and very professional
Keep these videos coming 🙏 this been the best video on the alphabet I've seen
Thank you very much for watching, commenting and these kind words! 🥰
Good morning Natasha!
Your voice is sweet and soft. Make many more videos for Russian language lovers.
I love Russian and appreciate you for the update.
This is the best introductory lesson I've seen on the alphabet and it's pronounciation, anywhere on you tube. You cleared up some frustrating confusion for me in explaining how the letter e can effect the consonant before it. Thank you very much for such a well paced and logical progression of learning.
This was an amazing video!
Thank you teacher!
I need THIS!!! Like yesterday!!!❤
I am lo❤ing these lessons! These are super helpful!
Thank you! 😊
Excellent video!!! That's how I teach Enlish beginner learn pronunciation.
Как албанец, изучающий русский, я подтжерьдаю, что лучший способ выучить русский язык: я немного знаю немецкий и арабский, но мой второй язык я учу больше всего по-русски.
Спасибо Наташа! Brilliant videos. Love the simple orderly fashion you conduct each lesson. Even though I am on my sixth month of learning, refreshing the basics is perfect for a before sleep practice. And you explain beautifully. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to your new videos.
Hi Diane! This means a lot to me!😊 Thank you so much for this comment! Удачи в изучении! ☺☺☺

i am russian orthodox and my grandad used to live in Sochi plus my hockey teammates are russian so i am really trying to learn and get good at russian so i can communicate better thanks so much for making these videos they are amazing
Thank you for the comment! 🙂
Good vidéo thank you ❤
Thank you for the comment! 😊
Good
"Hard" vowels: а, э, о, у, ы
"Soft" vowels: я, е, ё, ю, и
Voiced -> Voiceless consonants:
Д -> Т
В -> Ф
Г -> К
Б -> П
Reduction rules:
1) Voiced consonant at the end of a word becomes voiceless
2) Voiced consonant followed by a voiceless consonants becomes voiceless
3) О sounds like "o" only when it's stressed, otherwise it sounds like "a" or "ə"
4) Е sounds like "ee" when it's unstressed
Thanks
many thanks
Thank YOU for your comment! 😊😊😊
Very interesting
Thank you!
I loved your style and way of teaching!
I want to know if you have any Facebook community group in which we can connect with each others or any russian community so that we can learn russian language in more better way and do practice by speaking and listeing
Please make words video of vowels and consonants with sound ❤
Very helpful. Clearly a lot of work and thought went into this lesson. Th content as presented was very well planned; logical in its format and organization; and in depth even in its concise delivery.
Even the editing was well done!
Thank you!
Yet I am not certain how to pronounce what looks like "bl".
Looking forward for more videos.
Thank you! ☺☺☺
It's basically a very strong letter, like in the video shown, the word "Ill". A strong annunciated letter as compared to the rest of the flat letters that don't get much power in pronounciation
Hardest letter for me without a doubt is ы, no matter how many times I hear it pronounced, I just forget it XD
Great ❤
Thank you! 🥰🥰🥰
Wow this really is a great introductory video. It really would have saved me time gathering all the info myself. I’ll be going over this video again tomorrow and write it all down.
Thank you!
I thought the same. Very useful. I've done all the alphabet lessons in duolingo, but it's still very difficult for me to read anything, not to mention those weird letters that have difficult names and no clue how to pronounce them or what they are for. I think this video explained them, but I still have to watch it a couple of times more. 😅
Thank you very much for watching, commenting and your kind words! 🥰
I am very glad to hear that! Thank you very much for this wonderful comment! 🥰
I like your vedios so much 😂
here from switzerland ..(french part of the country) thks ofr pedagogic lesson ;) merci beaucoup its à litle bit hard ..because so much letters we dont have..and also contradiction prononciation like here the P we prononce p like papa and you prononce ER ..im so confuse but so curious at same time ..and natasha you so beautiful its hard to focus ;) thks so much for sharing !!
Yes, I understand the difficulty 🙃 It just takes time! Good luck!
Thank you very much for watching, commenting and kind words!💜
This is perfect! I was really struggling to understand vowels & reduction. I was so lost in my textbook. Speaking of textbook, is there a one that you would recommend for the self-taught student?
I’m glad I found your video. I was trying to learn the Putin language but I got stuck in the alphabet. Thank you.
Nice
Thank you! 😊
wow my first time learning Russian. The key is to learn the sounds first and make the relationship from to another. BTW since my native language is Spanish it is a little bit easier since most of the words sounds the same.
Good luck! 🍀😊
Just visited Uzbekistan and kazakhsthan and understood Russian is very important to survive there so planning to learn russian and go back after an year or 2
Thanks for this comment! True, Russian is needed not only in Russia! I wish you luck in learning this language! 💪💪💪
❤
As an Indian and a native Hindi speaker, it wasn't too hard learning the pronunciation of letters as we have different sounds we have in Hindi and due to this video. Спасибо.
That's great! Thank you! 😊
I love u,,,natasya
The most difficult letter for me is "р". I can't get the roll of the back of my tongue. In fact, the roll is in the front behind my dental, and even then I can only do one roll, sort of like "dt".
Я из Индонезии 😘

thanks you for teaching me Russian Pronunciation! now I can learn more words :)
note: I’m from Taiwan, if you think it’s China, it’s ok…
It is China. Taiwan is just a geographical reference to the island. Official name is Republic of China, your carrier is called China Airlines and look at your banknotes. If it’s not china then return all the treasures in the palace museum stolen by Chaing Kai Sek.
Just one or two word correction at 7:20 хор is choir, a chorus is припев.
Спасибо! 😊
Hi, the part where you're teaching the isolated soft consonant sounds, why did you skip л and м?
Привет Наташа, как дела ? Мне завут Lorenzo , as an Italian beginner I found one of your lesson today and I have appreciated your clear exposition and method and therefore I consider you a good and serious teacher . I shall try to go ahead with your lessons . Do you live in Russia? As you ask my difficolties are between the letters з and э , thou you deserved to be listened carefully . If you might find the time to answer me I '. LL be glad . Спасибо большое пака пака.
Привет Лоренцо! Thank you very much for your comment! You are not alone! Many people mix up э, з and 3! 🙈 Well, don’t worry, eventually this error will not happen. And thank you very much for your nice words. I really put a lot of energy into making this video and I'm so glad it can help! 💜💜💜
I ❤ this lunguage and i was speaking but now not because no one to practice in my village😂
Maybe you can find someone to practice your Russian on the Internet 🍀
Make a video in sequence of hindi letter
