Чудовищная русская пропись!

Русские прописные буквы.... Вот это да!

"Dearest Misha has deprived the lady-millionaire of lilies!"

Милейший Миша лишил лилии миллионершу... 

If you're having trouble with a particular letter, check out these YouTube videos... They're pretty good!

An overview of the Russian alphabet

If you're having problems learning the alphabet, or if you're just bored... please watch An Introduction to the Russian Alphabet (total of around 30 minutes). Да, знаю! Yeah, I know... It's really rough and I'm really longwinded, but watch it anyway.


In class, I provide you with a list of "sight words." (Here's a copy.) These are simple Russian words, often cognates with English or another language. The premise: You start with the first word, which is made up of shared letters between Russian and English. Then, word by word, the list introduces and reinforces new letters. By the time you complete the list, you've learned all 3444 letters in the Russian alphabet! You can listen to me reading the list of words here.
