Lesson 3: How to Pronounce Letters Ы Р Й / Russian Alphabet Pronunciation | Russian Comprehensive

Russian Comprehensive

Fun tips on Learning the Russian Alphabet (Learn How to Pronounce Russian Letters Ы, Р, Й).
From this video, you'll get some insights about how to pronounce the mysterious Russian Ы. I bet you’ll get some laughs out of it, and I hope, you’ll learn something new that you can benefit from.

Ы and И are very similar in pronunciation, the difference is that with И, your throat is narrow, and with Ы, it's open wider, just the same as when you're yawning. The sound Э is pronounced with a wider throat, too.

Another tricky Russian sound is the sound P. The bottom line is, that when you pronounce Л and P, your tongue gets pretty much in the same position (the tip of your tongue touches the top gum ridge), only with P it vibrates.

For many Russian kids, it’s difficult to pronounce P as well, and they'd say Л instead. So you just have to develop the appropriate muscle, the same as you do at a gym. Keep challenging yourself trying to say Pppppp as often as you can, and I promise, you will learn it. You just have to work the muscle, that you haven’t been using.

Й (the Short I) has the sound that resembles the Spanish sound [ll], like in the words Llamar, or Lleno. It can be also compared to the sound in the beginning of the word Yoga. Only keep in mind, that it's a consonant, not a vowel, it means, you "stumble" on it, you can't make it long or "sing" it.
