Letters Page

The Letters Page introduces each of the Russian cyrillic letters with a description of its pronunciation on the right hand side.

The letter is displayed in both the standard and cursive scripts - this is important in Russian as the forms can look very different. The Writing Page also presents the letters in both forms.

Examples of the use of the letters are provided in the Examples frame at the bottom of the page. Use the mouse to click the Next button to progress through the examples and to hear their pronunciation recordings.

The letters menu buttons allow users to move directly to any letter in the current lesson with a click of the mouse.
