The vast expanses of Russia cover eleven separate time zones on two continents: Europe and Asia. Russia and ten other former republics of the U.S.S.R. are now sovereign states or countries that have united in a loosely knit Commonwealth of Independent States (Coypyxectso Hesasncumerm Tocygapers). Russia has approximately 150 million people, almost half of the inhabitants of the former Soviet Union. All are citizens of Russia (poccuane), and many are ethnic Russians (pyeckne). Russia, however, is a multinational state and home to over one hundred nationalities and languages. The Russian language was a mandatory subject in Soviet schools and almost all of the 280 million people inhabiting the former republics know and speak Russian, either as their native or second language. In fact, a Georgian who wishes to speak with an Uzbek is likely to use Russian for communication. While English and other languages are now gaining popularity, Russian will remain, for at least a generation, the one mutually understandable language for those who live in Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Russia, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, Uzbekistan and the countries not part of the Commonwealth, Estonia, Georgia, Latvia, and Lithuania. Knowing Russian can open up a window onto a fascinating and enchanting nation, from the fairytale cupolas of Saint Basil's Cathedral to the majesty and power of Red Square and the Kremlin. Moscow, Russia's capital, is home to more than eight and one-half million people and the world-renowned Bolshoi Ballet. Far to the north, Saint Petersburg, capital to the tsars from Peter the Great until Nicholas Il, offers a marvelous blend of picturesque architecture highlighted by the White Nights of summer. Here too are the glorious palaces—the magnificent Winter Palace and Hermitage Art Museum. Russians take great pride in their culture: and country and they appreciate the efforts of those who try to speak their language. For many, the Russian alphabet is a major stumbling block to getting to know the country and its people better. With our Fast and Fun Way you'll be reading the signs and ready to talk with real Russians in just a matter of days. When you do get an opportunity to use your new language skills, you'll notice that your efforts will be truly rewarded. So let's begin! IPRONUNCIATION You know you're in Russia when the simple sign for a restaurant looks like PECTOPAH. Actually, the Ru: alphabet has only a few more letters than English. But to get started, look at the list below. Read aloud the pronunciation in the first column and then look at the Russian letters in the middle column. At the far right you will see the translation, and you'll be pleasantly surprised to learn how many of them you already know. After the first three words we'll add only one new letter per word.

What we commonly cal] the Russian alphabet is officially known as the Cyrillic alphabet. The Russians adopied the Cyrillic alphabet created in the ninth century when the monks Cyril and Methodius developed a written language for the Slavs. The Cyrillic alphabet has thirty-three letters and has much in common with the Greek alphabet. As you have seen, many letters are familiar to you from English and several others resemble Greek letters. As in English, each letter is only an approximation of how a sound is pronounced. The guide below should get you started in speaking Russian. VOWELS Russian has five vowel sounds, but ten vowel letters. Five of the letters are “hard” and five are “soft.” The one vowel sound in each word that is stressed receives special emphasis. As you speak Russian, try in the beginning to exaggerate your pronunciation.

Russians simply know where the stress is and do not write the accent marks. We will indicate the stressed syllable in our transcription with capital letters as an aid for your pronunciation. THREE RULES OF PRONUNCIATION 1. Russians pronounce the o sound only when it is stressed. When some other vowel is stressed in a word, the letter o is pronounced as an a Kor (KOT) but Kora (ka7A). When the letters e, and sometimes a are not stressed, they are pronounced as i in the English word “it.” 2. Consonants can be hard ay (NU) or soft wet (NYET). The soft n is like the sound in the word “onion.” A consonant is hard unless it is followed by a soft vowel letter a, e, m, é, #0 or by the soft sign ». 3. At the end of a word, or before voiced consonants, 6, B, r, A, , and 3, become their voiceless counterparts, 6—-n, B—-th, [—K, 1 —>T, KM, 3+. Examples: ron—GOT, Ga6—-BAF, wor—NOK, astomat—>afiaMAT, poaka—»VOTka. Now look at the following Russian signs and see if you can write their meanings in the blanks. 1.

As in English, Russian has printed or block letters and script or italic letters. One major difference, however, is that Russians do not print. So while you want to be able to recognize both sets of letters, you'll want to use the script letters when you write. Below is the Russian alphabet in its alphabetical order. Next to it we have” given the English. Finally, there are spaces for you to try your hand at writing Russian.

These are the nouns, the naming words. Russian nouns belong to one of three grammatical genders. They can be masculine, feminine, or neuter, and you can usually tell the gender of a noun by the ending. Masculine nouns end in a consonant. Feminine nouns end in a or 2. Neuter nouns end in o or e. Some nouns end in the soft sign &; most of these are feminine except for ones ending in -ens, which are masculine. The gender is only a grammatical category. The Russian (STUL) (rikAD ois word for chair, ery, is masculine. River, peka, is feminine. A letter, pata is neuter, English forms the plural by adding the letter s (es) to the end of a word. Russian plurals can be formed by ending bt (m) or a (a). (stuDYENT) (stu YEN) If the noun ends in a consonant, add b1 to the ending, eryqemT— cryqenrei. {KOMnaia) —_(KOMnaty) If the noun ends in a, replace the a with BI, KOMHaTa— KOMHATEI. (FyOMa) _ (TOR) If the noun ends in the soft sign & or the letter #, add u, Téta—-TéTH. (pirMO) —(PIS'ma) For neuter nouns that end in o, change the o to a, IMcbMO—mHcbMa. (ZDAnive) _ (2DAniya} If the ending was e change that e to #, 3]aHHe—3/,aHHA. Russian has only a few spelling rules. One of them is as follows: after the letters r, Ky X,%, MH, HI, *, you may not write the letter Br. Instead, you must write an 4.

Thus, they are essential if you are to understand and speak Russian. Keep your ears attuned for the word gb1, the polite form of addressing “you.” You'll answer with the form a, “1,” which is in fact the last letter of the Russian alphabet; it is only capitalized if it begins a sentence. The Tar, “you,” form is used between family members and friends, to animals, and between young people of similar ages. When in doubt, you'll be better off using Bbr so as not to offend anyone.

The first component is a form of the verb “to be.” a Oyay | willbe | ‘Tht GYAeub you will be on/ona/ono Gyner he/she/it will be bi Gyem we will be | 1 OYAeTE you will be | onn 69ayT they will be ANSWERS as Ih Of BZ aT Supa 96You can form the future tense of the most verbs we have seen by combining the infinitive of these imperfective verbs with the proper form of 6yay. 1 will listen. ‘A Gyay caymate. ‘You will read. Tei Gygeu wuTath. It will cost. Ono Gyaer créurs. ‘We will hurry. Mb 6yaem cneurits. You will speak English. Bui 6¥aere ronopiits no-pyccuu. | They will feed us. Onn nac 6¥ayT KopMiith. Russians can also form a simple future from a “perfective” verb. In this instance, you already know all of the forms of the verbs because they are identical to those of the present tense, Look at the following example. Present Tread an d0 I will read A nOUMTAIO you speak Thi FOBOpHME you will speak Thi HOrOBOpHUIb she is hurrying ona cneunir she will hurry oua nocneunit The examples show us one way in which a perfective verb can be formed from an imperfective verb by adding a prefix. The prefix mo often means “just a little.” Russians simply know which verbs are imperfective and perfective. For the moment, just concentrate on the meanings of verbs when you encounter them in our dialogues. We'll give you an easy way to check on the aspect of verbs at the end of the book in the Russian-English dictionary, (FSY0) (FSYE) Bcé — Bee Everything — Everyone In only a few word pairs is the difference between the letters é and e as important as in Beé meaning “everything” and pee meaning “all the people” or “everyone.” Watch how they are used.

Watch how they are used in the next dialogue. 97(eASKURTya) (pa) (hrimby) IkcKypensa no Kpemiro ‘An excursion around the K remain, Caroline, Stephanie, and Alex have decided to take a tour of the Kremlin this afternoon.
