thats not really accurate. russians doesnt alter sounds they somewhat already have in russian vocabulary. E sounds like YE only by itself, but in sentence its close to english E in many cases. TH is a problem since russian alphabet doesnt have a functional equivalent. those russian who doesnt bother, instead use soft D/hard T. TH as Z is a ancient soviet academic anachronism. H has exactly the same sounding letter X (not eX).

@@angeltensey not true. Because my main language is Russian it is much easier for me to speak the 5 other languages I speak with very little accent. Russian teaches you to bend your tongue like English doesn't. Grammar and reading aside (English is a collection of French and German words that have pronunciation quarks when in English). There are many phrases that you can say that will make people not distinguish a Russian from a native English speaker. I know I typically roll my Rs even in US English which gives me an accent with those words and multiple consonants in a row and W give me issues like "dnes" in Wednesday gives me trouble still, the words like "word" and "world. It also may be that my English is a Philly accent and they have issues with Ws anyway.

You pronounce "пять" (five) and "себя" (self) like [pjatʲ] and [seb'ja] instead of [pʲætʲ] and [sʲɪˈbʲa]. [kh] is not a literally two sounds, it's a [χ] sound. So the "how" is pronounced like [χaʊ].

I'm not Russian - actually Australian, but I'm heavily invested in learning the Russian language and accent. I think if you want to learn any accent, then you must learn the language (at least the basics and the sounds of the script/alphabet). But from what I know and gathered from the comments, the Russian accent is quite relaxed/soft with not much tongue or lip movement/posturing. English-speakers tend to think of the Russian accent as harsh or aggressive, like German, but most sounds in Russian are relaxed and/or muted compared to English language and pronunciation.

Well, it is a Hollywood Russian accent, not the real one. In reality, Russian accent is quite soft, lips and tongue are mostly relaxed, pharynx is not so constricted as it is in English. That's why the first thing you need to actually learn to do is to relax your tongue, lips, pharynx and rely on vowels more than on consonants while speaking. Consonants should sound very soft most of the time. Russian articulation is quite similar to the Portugese one . and, btw, /r/ sound is much softer, we don't speak with a trill, /r/ sound in Russian is soft and muffled in most cases. what you did by adding 'y' sound in every other place is also completely unnecessary. We do have 'y' sound but we use it only at the end of some Russian words and almost never when we speak English simply because there's no need to put additional sounds where there are none. for /h/ sound you do not need to add /k/. just remove excessive airstream and make it sound softer. All in all, it was a good attempt anyway, thanks for your great work:)

Про буквой "Е" неверно сказано. В русском языке звук YE будет произноситься только в начале слова, после гласных звуков и мягкого (Ь) или твёрдого знаков (Ъ). После согласного будет произноситься без Y. Когда носители английского пытаются делать русский акцент или говорить по-русски, то постоянно произношение этого звука неправильное. Ещё аналогичные примеры - это буквы "Я" (YA), "Ю" (YU или YOO), "Ё"(YO). Например буква "Ю" в русском после гласного звучит, как U в слове Universal, а после согласного, как в слове Blue. "Ё" произносится примерно, как сочетание букв YO в слове York, после согласного звука будет похоже произноситься, как U в слове Burn. С буквой "Я" могу в качестве примера указать сочетание буква YA например в названии компании Yamaha. Но аналога звучания после согласного звука в английском не могу подобрать. Звучит она как более мягкое произношение буквы А.

It all depends on how well a native Russian speaker was studying English. Those whose English is limited by their high school English will speak with strong east European accent like the author is presenting here with strong British like pronunciation. Those who have lived many years in North America and actually tried to improve their accent will quickly learn how to properly pronounce th, w, h and oo. But even those who can speak absolutely fluently and even think in English will still struggle once in a while with American spelling of words that have o or u in them. Such as hot and hut. There's a slight difference but most Russian natives will just say "хат". Another big problem for all Russian language speakers is when to use articles "a" and "the" or no article. Even advanced speakers sometimes confuse their use as there are no articles in Russian language at all.

This is so accurate :) (from a native Russian speaker :) ) P.S. Except maybe for the E - YE sound. But so spot on with the "backing down" and slowing down and all the rest. Great one:)

I think YE sound is not really common for Russian people speaking English, I think it is how people imitate the Russian accent, but I don't know why :) I don't know anybody speaking like that. There is no so much "Y" in those "Russian" versions of words like "respect".

Pretty funny, thanks. I have to agree with most (since I'm a Russian, so I have the kind of accent too). The only one I don't agree with is the "YE" in "RespYEct". Doesn't sound like Russian, I'm afraid. To do it more Russian try to imagine there's no "Y" there (which used to make you separate the "E" from the "p"). You should pronounce the "p" softer instead. "Resp'Ect" - soft "p" + "e" like in the word "yes" (but without "y" - remember?). I believe you know there are two Russian letters for "e": "Э" (sounds like "e" in "empty", "enter" etc) and "Е" (can sound like "YE" in "yes" - often at the beginning of a word - or like ['e] (didn't find another English word for that) "yEs", "ViEtnam" (BUT WITHOUT "Y") - inside a word). Sometimes in Russian you need to put the "YE" inside a word, so you need to separate the previous consonant from the "YE". Russians use the "separating soft sign" to write that: "Вьетнам" (Vietnam - sounds pretty much like in English - with Y: "VYETNAM"). But without this soft sign (Ь) Russians are not going to pronounce an "E" after a consonant like "YE".

Sank you. You toght me khow to do ze porfect Rassian accent. Spasibo!

This is an excellent video! Admittedly I only watched two videos, but this was the better one. People were IN AWE of my Russian accent.

Speed Reference: R - roll it, like once W - add the vw, "VWHAT?" TH - relace with a z or s sounds, whatever is most appropriate I - replace with an "EE" sound E - add the YE, "VWAHT ZE HYEK" U/OO - make it longer "foooood" HOW - say khow, this is a special case(i think) SLOW DOWN - you Russian english isn't your first language Placement - form your words from the back of the mouth practice sentence(s): How is that possible? You knew that the big red is out. What the heck. With Accent: "khow ees zeat posseeble. Yooo knew zeat ze beeg red ees out? Vwhat ze hyek." remember that russians are cool and you love communism or something.

Let's admit, the accent taught in the video is more similar to how we perceive the English accent in Russian speech

Yeah for a Russian it sure sounds like middle African or Polish guy stuttering. We don’t use Y between consonants and vowels, instead we just soften the previous consonant being something more of a Spanish n/ñ situation. So it would be rather irresp̃ectable than irresp-Y-ectable which really sounds like stuttering. Additionally we don’t use a K instead of the H we just have the same H with actually the same tongue posture but the only difference is that you actually pronounce the letter and your tongue actually touches the soft palate rather than just “breathing” instead like in English. Again, similar to Spanish, namely to “J”. Also it would be nice if you had mentioned the difference between our T sounds, the difference is caused by actually different tongue posture, in English T is pronounced with a tongue being on the incisive papilla making it sometimes TS instead, whereas in Russian it’s pronounced after the incisive papilla being much closer to the roots of teeth which makes it just a basic solid T never sounding like TS. D is pronounced in the same position, so that’s why Russian D never transforms into a flap T (or just a Russian R based on the way flap T actually sounds)

I’m Canadian but for some reason I want to learn this because there’s a character in my game I want him to have a Russian accent

The TH-sound in 'Think' could also be changed to F-sound along with the S-sound. So both 'Sink' or 'Fink' are perfectly acceptable 😂.

Why you have it that complicated? In Czech, we just turn all TH sounds to D and screw that, it's simple. 😀

Very good Russian accent, I am learning Spanish very slowly. Like you said, it is important to start speaking slowly when practicing a new language. I have a couple of questions to ask you, if you do not mind. These questions are just for education and inspiration. 1.) Are you an Actor who has been on videos? 2.) What do you mean by forward, backward, and etc. on our voices when we change our languages?

2:45 this is the single most wrong thing about the Russian accent - or language. as kids we used to make fun of how Americans tried to do a Russian accent - and that is exactly the thing we copied. no. don't bloody do that xD what your can do instead - merge the y sound with the preceding consonant. this is what we do in Russian, and in a strong Russian accent (also in Ukrainian and Polish - although Inn Polish it would sound _slightly_ closer to your description). you gotta say the preceding consonant and the y at the same time, not one after another. it's kinda difficult for those who don't have such sounds in their language, but that would sound authentic. these are the so called 'soft' consonants (palatalized).

Recently got cast as Anton Chekhov in a play, so this is very useful thank you!!

I specifically looked at this video because I’ve been told I do a Russian accent whenever I’m genuinely PISSED, I was curious about it because I’d never actually noticed it before and now that I’m watching this I’m realizing it’s… entirely true, I’m Russian but I never grew up in a place where people had an accent even remotely similar so I have no idea where I got that from. 😂

I wanted to do this for fun because it suddenly became an hyperfixation but oh my I didn't expect it to be that much??? lmaoo I need to listen to this a little more often to remember because I literally almost forgot everything 😂

I am Russian and your video helps me to realize all my pronunciations mistakes :-). So I can try to do all your examples exactly opposite zat :-) sounds more natural.

I learned my Russian accent after watching Child 22 with Tom Hardy but when I was little I picked up the line “I must break you” which is my favorite thing to say (from Rocky when he fights the Russian dude) this video was really helpful as a visual to see the words spelled out with the changed pronunciation. This was quite accurate I’d say and very helpful!! Honestly just practicing a lot with it is the best you can do and like he said, watch and listen to Russians talking in interviews and movies. Very nice!!

I'm Russian and have something to say. You explained YE sound a bit wrong, in you variant it sound strange even for Russians... But i don't know how to explain it by text. It must be heard to understand. About KHOW, also wrong. It's the same H, but sounds a bit more rough. It doesn't sound like there's K. Though, we're writing this K before H, to ephasize this roughness. So city of Khabarovsk doesn't sound like Kabarovsk, but sound like Habarovsk with rough H.

this is very accurate ngll

Russian accent just sounds badass.

This actually works

Probably the most common mistake when people read romanized Russian is understanding KH as two sounds. In fact, “K” is just a sign that shows how in this case you need to pronounce the sound "Н" (as hard Н). The sound K in this combination is not pronounced at all.

There was a comedian that pointed out that the Russian accent was very scary. So he learned to do it when in bad neighborhoods.

As a russian person, I agree with everything except for the letter kh - we don't say that. There's no this k-sound in it but h should be strong.

as the russian native "Ye" is not accurate.
