  • Russian Hard and Soft Consonants
    May 30 2021

    The concept of hardness and softness is crucial in mastering your Russian pronunciation.

    Here are the words I used today:

    МАТЬ – МЯТЬ

    УГОЛ – УГОЛЬ

    МАТ – МАТЬ

    Try to practice with English 'moot' and 'mute' or 'lip' and 'leap'.
    Also, pay attention to he difference between И and Ы.

  • Russian sound Й (short И)
    Mar 9 2020

    In today’s episode, you will hear how to pronounce Russian sound Й (И краткое).

    There can be three positions of the letter Й.

    1. Before a vowel, it is pronounced as [y] in words like ‘yogurt’ and ‘yet’.
    2. After a vowel, it sounds like [y] in ‘boy’ or ‘toy’.
    3. Between two vowels, it is like [y] in the word ‘coyote’.

    Listen and repeat:

    ТАЙ

    ПОЙ

    ЙОГА

    ЙОТА

    БОЙКОТ

    КОЙОТ

  • Ы and И in Russian
    Jan 9 2020

    И [ee] – Russian И is one of the so-called soft vowels (we will talk about them in the next lessons). It is shorter than the sound in the words ‘people’ and ‘feet’. Try to make a short and long И sound. It is important to understand the position of your tongue. This will help you later when we speak about the soft consonants.

    Ы [ih] – Russian Ы is unique. There is no such sound in English. I will teach how to pronounce it in several ways (watch the video).

    Ы, ПЫ, БЫ, МЫ, ВЫ, ФЫ, ГЫ, ДЫ, НЫ, СЫ, ЗЫ, ТЫ, КЫ;

    ЫП, ЫБ, ЫМ, ЫВ, ЫФ, ЫГ, ЫД, ЫН, ЫС, ЫЗ, ЫТ, ЫК.
