      I don't think native speakers think about it. I hear them say "unlike English vowels, Russian vowels all sound the same." Uh... I underdstand English might have more crazy exceptions and therefore be frustrating for non-natives on your side, but Russian vowels do NOT always sound the same over here on ours... 😂👍

    Miss jenny! I know this video is four years old! I don’t know why, but this video is ideal for me! The hardest part, is to relax and honestly not worry about mistakes! I was fascinated with the Russians Cyrillic! Me being me, I decided why not, and learned them! But why stop there? This video is perfect. However, I still wish I could reading! But in reality of the reward is actually learning it! To the point of being able to read and understand it! Though it may not be today, but it won’t be much further, from today either!

      You're can read the letter "O" everywhere as o and it will be an old Russian pronunciation, now such a dialect has remained in the northern regions of Russia, for example, in the town of Vladimir or Suzdal. They will learn to read easier by syllables, as when parents teach their kids.

    I was inspired by this vid to reread the fairytale and was surprised to remember how much it is quoted in regular-ish life (usually by the older generation) like the "все равны как на подбор, с ними дядька Черномор" or "а как речь то говорит, словно реченька звучит" and there are even more that I can't quote right now.

    How we can recognize which vowel is stressed and which one is not? There's a grammar rule about it? As a beginner, it's impossible for me to understand which vowel of the words should be stressed. Could you give any tips in this regard? 🙃

    • @howjaneylearned
      @howjaneylearned  4 года назад +9

      In some languages the word stress is always on the same syllable (for example in Polish where it's always the second to last). But unfortunately in Russia the word stress moves around and the only way to memorize it is: 1) Read texts where the stress is shown (very common in textbooks) and 2) memorize how these words sound. There's almost a rhythm and melody to them. I have students do some sort of action, like an ax chop with their hand, on the stressed syllable.

    It's still way too fast for me.
    So the first o is also stressed in this word поздно ? You didn't underline it 😢 so I was confused. Or maybe I'm wrong and it's not stressed. Also when the "o" is the only vowel in a short word, does it make it stressed or not? It seems like it is pronounced as an "a" too when that's the case, like for example in "под", I thought that the contrary would actually be the case since where else could the stress be placed if not on the only vowel there is in a word...oh wait but in "то" is pronounced as o... I don't understand anything anymore.

    Okay, thanks for all you're doing but I have a problem and it's with translators < this is not the first time I've encountered this but the English translation by Zellikov is nothing like what is written by Pushkin < I know I tend to be literal in my approach but Zellikov is making up flourishes out of nothing there in the original < there was this lovely young lady who was translating news stories and seriously, I often wondered if she and I were reading the same story < in your opinion, is this normal to take such liberties with the original texts?

    • @howjaneylearned
      @howjaneylearned  6 лет назад +7

      When translating a poem the translator can choose to keep the rhyming scheme or stay true to the original text. So yes, that's why I gave you the word for word translation in the worksheet that I linked to so you could see what was what. :)

      Правильно. Это выделение звука, обозначаемого буквой. В английском такой звук передается двумя буквами, и люди могут не понять, как точно произносить. И кстати, "неправильно" пишется слитно.

  • @disdonc6012
    @disdonc6012 4 года назад

    Actually what you say as "rule" ans how it sounds in reality is not the same thing. It depends on the exact word, as I hear (as a learner). Most of the time the not stressed "е" won't be really an "и" but just a different kind of "е". Same with the unstressed "о" after the stressed one. Many times it's almost pronnounced the same way as the unstressed "o" before the stressed one. So, many times I really can't hear this "shwa"-sound, you're talking about.
    Finally a question: When listening to different real Russian speakers, I noticed that with these short words like "под" or "что" the "o"s are not always pronounced the same. Some people say the actual "o", others say the "а"-sound. Is this because some people (or depending on the stress) see two words as one so that it comes to the vovel reduction? Because normally in a word that has only one syllable "o", the "o" is stressed and would have to be pronounced as an "o". But for example in "под окном" or "потому что" the two words seem to be understood as one word because they are said very closely together / belong very closely together. So actually in both cases the "o" in the short word should - after the rule - be pronounced as a real "o" but is not. At least in many cases, but you hear both versions in everyday speech. Why is that?

    Not the worst method for learning a language would be
    listening to the text read first a native speaker of the language,
    and secondly a professional reader.
    This guarantees quality and correct pronunciation.
    To facilitate the learning process using this material
    there are many computer programs that allow slow down
    the pace of the speaker's speech without noticeable
    deterioration in quality.

    Всё таки "о" несовсем превращяется в "а" , а только на половину, она вроде как уже не совсем "о" но ещё и не чёткая "а". Так сильно даже москвичи не акают) Если произносить "о" как "о", то вполне прокатит как северный деревенский говор).

      Ну так наоборот, это правильно и хорошо) Не всё на русском читается так, как пишется, - просто для носителей русского это не очевидно.
      Вся Россия на месте многих "о" говорит так, что это уходит в "а" (Масква), а о-кают лишь в редких сёлах, почти изолированных от цивилизации. Я слушала записи с лингвистических экспедиций в такие деревни, это для обычного русского слуха звучит непривычно)
      И конечно, на нормальных уроках русского для иностранцев будет чёткая и заметная "а" (пад окном). Чтобы изучающие это отмечали для себя и воспроизводили.
