    Ы is definitely the most foreign to me. I can get really close but I keep wanting to pronounce it as И.

    • @DeadnWoon

      It is very close to i in English words like 'this', I suppose.

      @@DeadnWoon yes, this is what I usually say. If you can't pronounce "ы", start from "i" from words like "stir, stick, will" etc. It's pretty close and you will be understood perfectly.

      @orhoushmand85 6 лет назад +5

      Try my tip: pronounce the more familiar и, a sound that requires your tongue to be stretched to the sides so that the sides of the tongue touch the grinding teeth. Then, without releasing very much tension, narrow your tongue so that the sides of the tongue don't touch anything, but the tongue is still not very far back as in у.

    • @嵐影湖光-r9z

      Hanna Jenkins. Hello! I am an Indian. I happened to see your there-year old comment about the pronunciation of Russian hard " i ". It's true. I don't know whether you are continuing with Russian. Still, I wanted to suggest a way out for hard " i " problem. Please keep a pencil horizontally between your lips and try to pronounce any single syllable word with hard " i ". The pencil naturally obstructs the tounge and it's middle part is raised back producing the sound of hard " i ". After 4 or 5 times remove the pencil and try without it. Anyone can get the required sound. Wish you good health and success. Greetings from India!

  • @Unbrutal_Rawr
    @Unbrutal_Rawr 9 лет назад +1

    This video is completely misleading and I don't advise anyone on following anything it states, most notoriously that the "soft indicating" vowels are different sounds - they aren't, they stand for the same sound and when following a consonant, they only define the sound of that consonant which in return may or may not change the vowel's sound slightly. The [j] is only there when no consonant is preceding them, as is evident from the video.
