I'm Russian, I speak English, and learn German and Ancient Greek. If you need a practicing partner, let me know! ;) And, couple of advices for you regarding this video: 1. Don't spell russian "D" as "/\", because you will be mixing it up with "Л". Try to form a habit to write it as it should, "Д". 2. Pronounce "сегодня" as "севодня". This will make your prononciation of this word perfect! Cheers! :)

I would add that in most of the words you use, the 'o' is pronounced more like an 'a' than an 'o', it happens when the syllable containing the letter o is not stressed.

На первых порах вполне норм говорить ровно так, как написано, много кто так говорит на повседневной основе. Так же совершенно не обязательно, превращать безударные "о" и "е" в "а" и "и" ("малако", или в слове "дела" "е" звучит практически как "и", можно произносить ясно "е", кому как нравится), а так же оглушать звонкие гласные, превращать "д" в "т" (нарот), и "ч" в "ш" (што). У меня был одноклассник, которые всегда произносил что вместо што. В некоторых регионах так исторически сложилось, что люди говорят ровно так, как написано, "молоко" и т.д. Русский чем прост, как испанский, что видишь то и читаешь, это тебе не английский, и не упаси боже французский.

@AlinefromToulouse 3 жыл бұрын

The thing is that in Russian я is supposed to be pronounced 'ia' but in reality, the a is pronounced more like 'e' as in 'yes', 'и' is not pronounced 'i', and can be confounded with e (the letter). All those letters don't sound exactly like a or i or e but are closer to those sounds than from o or i for the first 2 for instance. And still, o in non stressed syllables is not pronounced o in the main Russian pronunciation, and in the word много never ever. Of course, it is not necessary to pronounce right at the beginning but why not try? I don't totally agree with you about French, because even if words are not pronounced exactly as written, a letter or set of letters is always pronounced the same way, for example: ai is always pronounced 'é', some letters at the end of a word are always silent, etc...

I have been using Duolingo so far to learn the basics, and although it takes it quite slowly it’s a great way to implement practise into every single day and also to make sure you learn everything properly before moving on! I also watch Russian shows with subtitles and read a page from a Russian book out loud every day even though I don’t know what most of it means yet, I just find this helps me to remember the alphabet and helps me get used to the pronunciation :)

I watched a lot of videos on KZfaq about learning different languages and it became interesting to me how foreigners learn Russian (since I myself am Russian). I'm glad that I speak this language from birth, because even Russians are confused in their native language, let alone foreigners.I don’t know about other countries, but we have a lot of jokes about our language. When we come across some complex construction or a strange word, we say: "Great and mighty Russian language" with a funny accent. But it's so cool that you decided to learn this language! It's difficult, but really interesting. Good luck to everyone who learns Russian. (you will need it :>). And to everyone who learns foreign languages.

I know that this was posted 2 months ago,but I really enjoyed watching! Also a little tip from a russian speaker: When we speak, we almost all the time change the го to a во Ex: Сегодня when speaking we would say "Севодня" but it's still written as Сегодня. When you'll be going into intermediate or advance russian and listening to everyday speech, most likely you will hear the words when spoken with a "во" while it's written with a "го" the most common example is the word you said: Сегодня. Just wanted to share! You're amazing for learning my mother toungue! Thank you! I appreciate it! I also subscribed! Also for a bit advance level, since your begginer you don't have to worry about this,but sometimes the words that are written with an О are pronounced with an А, the word that I can remember from the top of my head is Computer: Компьютер (written) but for the ease of pronounciation we say it as: "Кампьютер", the sound changing is only used when speaking. Just wanted to share to maybe make your russian journey a bit easier in the future! (I'm learning Korean lol) Удачи в изучении Русского! Ты сможешь! Я в тебя верю!

Thanks for this video, Karen. As an older guy, I appreciate that you can embrace the low-tech utility of a notebook. I think I would add a fourth factor in deciding on a new language, which would be languages already studied. For example, I am interested in Haitian Creole because I already speak French. Likewise, I would like to get serious about Swahili because I studied Arabic; and Chavacano because of Spanish. What do you think?

Nice video. I'm learning Russian too, on my own ( with youtube, duolingo etc). I recommend the RealRussianClub youtube course, "from zero to fluency", which was how I started learning. And a little comment about your pronunciation (maybe you've already noticed it but anyway): In many words the letters го are pronounced as "vo", so сегодня is "sevodnya", его is "yevo", etc. Good luck with your learning 👍

Ivana sounds cool actually. I don't meet many people with this name here in Russia, but it sounds nice. Good luck with the studies, you're already doing great! I know how difficult it is (if it wasn't my first language, I would probably never dare to learn it, lol). But seeing how well you deal with languages, there's not even a doubt you can nail this one too🙈

i'm learning Russian too, but i'm really familiar with the language because my country's unofficial language is Russian, everybody is speaking it except me lol. anyways, it was so cute to listen to you say the sentences, there were mistakes, mostly in pronunciations, but they will get better as the time goes by! good luck!!

I'm also learning Russian language because it really caught my attention, and Russia is a mystery to me ❤ so far it's really amazing and I'm loving it. I also admit that I'm not a fast learner, but I make sure that everyday, there will be a progress on my journey. ❤

I have changed the language on my phone to Russian for a couple months now and this alone has helped me to get to a point where I'm seeing a lot of grammatical patters and have taken in a lot of commonly used vocabulary. But I'm not in a class, I'm trying to teach myself. I'm learning because I want to read about Russian experiences with respect to internal govt repression under Stalin - specifically GULag books and also stories that are here online but are only in Russian. It's a topic I've been very passionate about for many years now but sources in English are limited. Also, the Russian way of thinking and writing is so different to mine and I really find it touches my soul.

You sound great speaking Russian for someone learning for a short time! You probably already figured it out by now, but его like in сегодня should be pronounced ево. Russian is a language which is really hard to speak (I am still struggling after 1.5 years of intense study), so don't feel nervous about making mistakes.

I learned Russian in university for a year, then started dating a Serb and decided to switch to learning Serbian instead. Slavic languages are hard, but your experience in German will come in handy. I'm learning Serbian through German (I'm C1) and I find it way easier because both languages have a grammatical case system.

ive been learning japanese for 2.5 years. the first 2 years were all by myself buying books and looking online. i decided this january to actually try to speak it with someone so i started taking italki lessons with a japanese native. been taking italki lessons for 11 months now. However i still cant watch japanese tv and understand everything. movies or anime....like i have to constantly still look up words. my speaking isnt very good either. basically just 1 sentence answers to questions. as for kanji well i know a lot of the basic ones but i can not read japanese without looking at what a kanji means either. So it looks like i still have a long way to go if i ever get there. my plan is to learn without ever stepping foot in a classroom and never going to japan. i dont think i will ever visit there but i never know for sure. i also have no friends or family that speak japanese. so if i learn it might be a miracle.
