Hello Polyglots 😎
In today's lesson, you will learn how to write the different letters of the Russian alphabet, how to pronounce these letters whether it is through the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA), or through a video with the pronunciation of the letters by a native speaker.
You will also find at the end of this lesson a virtual keyboard to be able to type each special character of this language.
Russian Alphabet and IPA Pronunciation
Russian is a Slavic language, such as Polish or Czech, written with the Cyrillic alphabet, inspired by the Greek alphabet.

Notes
The Russian l is velar, it is pronounced as English well or as the old French chevals: one pronounced then s of the plural (that is why the pronunciation was then modified in "cheva-or "Then" chevo "writes Chevaux)
At the end of the word, the sound consonants become deaf, as in German, they pronounce then:
- b > p
- v > f
- g > k
- d > t
- z > s
The Russian has 5 vocalic phonemes noted by 10 graphemes:
a | e | i | o | u | |
а | э | ы | о | у | After a hard consonant |
я | е | и | ё | ю | After a soft consonant or yod |
NOTE: If the word contains 'ё', the accent is always on this vowel. Therefore, the accent mark is not placed above 'ё'.
Examples
(In brackets the transcription & bracketed phonetics)
ад (ad) [at] Hell | яд (jad) [jat] poison |
мыло (mylo) [mɨlo] soap | мило (milo) [mjilo] nice |
лук (luk) [luk] onion | люк (ljuk) [ljuk] hatch |
These wet sounds are not necessarily transcribed in French. Thus the name of the first president of Russia was Борис Ельцин in Russian, Boris Yeltsin in English and French: Boris Yeltsin (but pronouncing "Yeltsin").
