Introduction to Russian Alphabet:
Lesson 49

The letter ж sometimes goes together with another letter, which is the epitome of the Russian language and alphabet. This letter has no equivalent in English, nor do the English ever say it. The letter looks like this:

ы

This is a bit hard to pronounce, and it might take some getting used to. For this course, I will simply write this letter as y.

This letter is awesome.

Some pronouns in Russian have this letter.

For example, we is my.

The informal version for you is ty.

Here is the formal version for you – vy:

That would be:

We
