🤔

2019-09-05 15:54:37 UTC  

Saw that.

2019-09-05 15:54:51 UTC  

Yes.

2019-09-05 15:54:54 UTC  

Yes you did.

2019-09-05 15:55:11 UTC  

i saw it but didnt understand

2019-09-05 15:55:21 UTC  

Just as planned.

2019-09-05 15:55:40 UTC  

Man baronii iz... ?

2019-09-05 15:55:54 UTC  

Couldn't finish reading the whole thing.

2019-09-05 15:56:10 UTC  

i can read cyrillic but i cant make out jack shit

2019-09-05 15:56:18 UTC  

I should have probably used a proper keyboard to match the pronounciations as otherwise it sounds autistic.

2019-09-05 15:57:40 UTC  

Яки буд, яки набуд

2019-09-05 15:58:15 UTC  

We had Russian language in our hi-school, good times.

2019-09-05 15:58:35 UTC  

Russian is a cool language.

2019-09-05 15:58:42 UTC  

Indeed.

2019-09-05 15:58:43 UTC  

I hate the soft sign though.

2019-09-05 15:58:54 UTC  

Makes spelling hard

2019-09-05 15:59:02 UTC  

For me its the hard signs xd.

2019-09-05 15:59:24 UTC  

Yeah the consonant clusters are pretty harsh.

2019-09-05 16:00:13 UTC  

The worst thing Bolsheviks forget to get rid of during their script reforms.

2019-09-05 16:00:26 UTC  

Imo is the duality of O letter.

2019-09-05 16:00:53 UTC  

They merged most letters which were pronounced the same like Yat and Ye.

2019-09-05 16:01:40 UTC  

But O can be read as either O or A, depending on the acute accents in the word (which most native speakers don't use).

2019-09-05 16:02:03 UTC  

Like in spasiba, which is written as spasibo.

2019-09-05 16:02:18 UTC  

it is?

2019-09-05 16:03:00 UTC  

Or Maskva, it's written as Moskva.

2019-09-05 16:03:15 UTC  

Which is why its best to use former USSR states media.

2019-09-05 16:03:18 UTC  

Which means thank you and Moscow.

2019-09-05 16:03:27 UTC  

They have beginner knowledge but love Russia a lot.

2019-09-05 16:04:13 UTC  

Like a good amount of Ukrainians simplify it a LOT.

2019-09-05 16:04:53 UTC  

They just assume it's either too easy or too hard to constantly try correct if I had to guess.

2019-09-05 16:05:02 UTC  

@T. Raven Yes. It's confusing. The Russian cyrillic is for most part a phonetic alphabet after their reform, with the exception of their O letter, which sometimes is read as A.

2019-09-05 16:05:37 UTC  

On the end of words, O will always be read as A, as with the spasiba case.

2019-09-05 16:06:00 UTC  

But for the other ones, you need to learn the placement of acute accents.

2019-09-05 16:06:23 UTC  

Or you could just rely off other speaker's lack of knowledge on pronounciations

2019-09-05 16:06:33 UTC  

Writing in Russian is hard enough as it is

2019-09-05 16:06:36 UTC  

or you could just slur the letters together

2019-09-05 16:06:45 UTC  

All the noun endings, my lord!

2019-09-05 16:07:41 UTC  

Soft signs are easy for me, as its the same as our ć, ś, ń, etc.
But we don't really have the hard signs counterpart.

2019-09-05 16:08:02 UTC  

Wait do you have soft Ls?

2019-09-05 16:08:14 UTC  

Yes.

2019-09-05 16:08:29 UTC  

Our default L letter is that.
