MEMORIZE the CYRILLIC alphabet (in 10 minutes)
Ever wondered how to read the script used to write Russian, Ukrainian, Serbian, Bulgarian, etc. (aka the CYRILLIC alphabet)? It looks weird, but it's actually easy to learn with mnemonics.

How about the Cherokee Alphabet? I just found out about it. It has 85 symbols that represent sounds like kana. It's taught in schools, but it is at risk of dying out. You could offer it to the schools that teach the language.
I think a video for memorizing Anatomy, or pharmacology(medical subjects) would be amazing! Great video as always
This is by far the most comprehensive and fun to look at each letters. I'm astounding by the many references you can find and put it into practice ,this video should be recommended to many russian learners beginners. Much love 😊
man, this was awesome. I was hoping to learn Cyrillic for geoguessr purposes. when I saw it on your screen during the montage, I knew it was the right video. subbed. thanks for making this. excited to see more from you.

Fun fact. From what I have learnt so far, there is no letter J in Cyrillic but when you think about it, what sounds are required to even make a J sound? In English, it's like... djuh sort of.. well, anyway, in Russian you use the D sound and the soft J sound (which is the S in pleaSure).. add them together Д+Ж = J John = Джон There are other really cool things about Cyrillic that I just love! If you know the sound that every letter makes, you can basically read Russian! And vice versa, if you can read Russian, you can likely pronounce the words out loud! So cool!

Hello Nelson, would it be possible to buy the hardcover Russian version of your book for kids in Europe?
Always looking forward for your contents
Sir, your pronunciation is very correct as for a non-Russian-speaking person! I must add though that the Russian letters for ee and oo came from one Greek letter ypsilon aka upsilon. Russian letters for b and v also came from one Greek letter beta aka vita... Russian letter l obviously came from Greek lambda. As for the letter ы, I personally wonder why English speakers studying Russian always make a tragedy out of its pronunciation. Yes, you were ABSOLUTELY right - that is practically the same sound as in the one-syllable English words where i is put between the consonants or is placed before the consonants. Well, perhaps, in Russian it is rougher, more brutal sounding. But basically, approximately, yes - that's the sound ih, more or less the one in the English words like ill, rib, this. For my native Russian speaking ear, for example, that's quite the vowel sound from the English word "this". Some English speakers also pronounce that sound in the beginning of the word "enough". French speakers sometimes describe it as "i posterieur" - "backside i", or so. It's i when the tongue is moved to the back of the throat. And, to be totally correct, the letter щ does not sound QUITE like sh+ch in Russian, that's an approximation. In Russian it sounds quite like soft long version of ш - it is [sh:']. Since the concept of softness is alien to Germanic languages including English, yes, probably it is a good approximation. In any case, щ is the only definitely long sound of Russian language, it tends to sound like long, like a double one that may help to identify it in speech.

Entire russian alphabet came from medieval greek plus extra letters invented for sounds absent in greek
The pronunciations were perfect. Right up until 'щ'. [shch] is how it is usually transcribed, but it does not represent the sound it makes. Just like 'th' is not actually read as two sounds of 't' and 'h', but stands in to denote its own sound as a whole. 'щ' also is read as a single sound (close to 'ш', but softer), not as a combination of 'sh' and 'ch'.
4:37 Here's how to double peg this one: His mnemonic is chef and he uttered an "Eh" that sounded almost exactly like HowToBasic's whenever he gives a thumbs up. And who's the best chef in the world? HowToBasic! Eh 👍!

Hi, wondering if you'll address the situation on Everest this year?
AKMOT alone is worth the thumbs up. Helped me a lot. I always imagine bl as "oo-wee" like you're reacting something really good or really bad but step on the W and make it at the back of your throat more. Might be wrong but that's what it sounds like to me lol.
@NelsonDellis I could help but notice that you listed 4 languages, but your alphabet list is very russo-centric. For instance, you completely missed: Ukrainian: Є (Like in 'yes'. Е is used in ukrainian and most every other slavic language for the vowel in pane) І (Like in the word 'seen'. И in Ukrainian takes on the french 'u'). Ї (As heard in 'Yeet'.) Ґ (As heard in 'goblin'. Г takes on a sound in Ukrainian with no good equivalent in english, sounding like a heavier 'h') Bulgarian: Щ (as in 'shtick'. the softer 'sch' used in russian is exclusive to that language.) Serbian: Ј (as seen 'boys' and 'youth'.) Љ (as seen in the spanish 'ella') Њ (as seen in 'union' and 'onion') Ћ (as seen in 'witch' and 'pitch') Ђ (as seen in 'edge' and 'legitimate') Џ (as seen in 'Jury' and 'Judge)

Interesting, you remember the ch sound the way I do, also the IO (u) sound.
The one thing i can find in online or in the 3 textbooks im reading is how to actually translate a Russian word into english so i can understand it. Everything i find tells how to pronounce a word in Russian but not how to get the meaning in English. The first small word i cam upon was West. I saw the Russian word for west and looked at the alphabet to try to translate it to english for me to read it but it doesnt translate that way. Im so stuck on this
Do this for Serbian this really helped

08:10 There's no "montenegrin" (or "bosnian", or "croatian") language - it is all one the same Serbian language. Like many nations speak English or Spanish language, the Serbian is spoken in large part of former Yugoslavia.

Montenegrins are ethnic Serbs whose statehood was created in parallel with the restoration of Serbian statehood in the 19th century. A large part of Montenegrins still consider themselves Serbs or at least still call their mother tongue Serbian and not "Montenegrin". In the Balkans there is great chauvinism among the nations that emerged from the collapse of the former Yugoslavia. Because of that, the newly formed nations do not want the language they speak to be called Serbian, so they call it "Croatian", "Bosnian", "Montenegrin", and they build elaborate quasi-scientific theories about the "non-Serb" root of their nations and languages. Like if Australians, for some reason, started to hate England and consequently called their language (which is still English) "Australian".

It looks different from the IX century alphabet, besides that it has letters that don't exist in other scripts, so it's Russian
one little thing: it's not Russian "H" looks like an English "H", but the English "H" looks like a Russian "H." Big difference, dude. Same with all the other letters here. Ah, yeah, one more thing: it's not that "Я" is a "backward R," but "R" is a "backward Я."
You keep saying Russian but I would like to ask, do you mean Cyrillic. Russian and cyrillic are not synonymous. Cyrillic was not created by Russia. In fact the name Russia wasn't either. Kyiv Rus.
This alphabet was created by two Greek monks from Thessaloniki. So yes you are correct its like 70% Greek.

@@ItachiUchiha-bt8yp They were Byzantine Greeks. They spoke Greek as a first language and many other languages. People were divided into religious categories first, so if you were an orthodox Christian under the Byzantine empire you spoke Greek to some extent. Ethnogenesis in the modern interpretation of the word came centuries later. So yes, they were GREEKS, linguistically, culturally and ethnically. Second of all, the glagotic alphabet was also invented by THEM. “The Glagolitic and Cyrillic alphabets are the oldest known Slavic alphabets, and were created by the two brothers and/or their students, to translate the Gospels and liturgical books[22] into the Slavic languages.” Stop being anti Hellenic.
