Thread: I need to know conjoining words

Thes are the words, if these dont exist just put a blank or what ever.
I heard it is rude to talk only formal.

and
but
or
yet
for
nor
so
it
they
who
what
when
where
why
also
were
all
to
in
both
did
had
have

What is the letter E with two dots over it for?
Ps if theres anyother I missed please mention them.

до
него
не=not?
дошёл

Ugh. I will make an attempt at this one since I need the practice.

and = "и" (sometimes "а" depending on use)
but = "но"
or = "или"
yet = "ешё"
for = "для"
nor = "ни"
so = "так"
it/he = "он" (depends on use)
they = "они"
who = "кто" (there are many variants, depends on use)
what = "что" (there are many variants, depends on use)
when = "когда"
where = "где"
why = "почему"
also = "также"
(we) were = "были" (first person plural past tense of "to be")
all = "все"
to = "к"
in = "в" or "на" (depends on use)
both = "оба"
did = "сделал" (past tense of "to do one time")
did = "делал" (past tense of "to do on a routine basis")
have = "у" + genetive form + "есть" + nomnitive form

Example:
I have a pencil
у меня есть карандаш

до = as far as, up to, until
него = him
не = not
дошёл = (I,he or it) reached (a specific location usually by walking)
past tense of the verb дойти

дойти - to reach (a specific location usually by walking); to get to (a specific location usually by walking); to arrive at (a specific location usually by walking)

The ё sounds like "yo" and is stressed.

до
него
не
дошёл

Sounds like someone was reading my other posts.

Sir Krist, please don't tell us you're gonna try and construct a sentence out of these words???

no I just want to learn some of the words to conjoin sentances,then learn words to make complete sentances.

unfortunatly this is all I could think of at the time...(it was late at night)

I thought

to=V(in latin)B(in russian)

but "B" meaning "in" makes sense as well.

what does this symbol for?"ж" to me it looks like a squished spider or a thing from invaders.

and sometimes I see letters like"bl" is this an aposterphy to change the sound of the last letter? and If I write in latin letters do I just put in the aposterphy?"'" or do I ignore it.

what does "chas" mean

and "Dela"

kak means how...and "TY" means you (informal)

Ж is a letter. It has a similar sound has the French J, or the English measure, pleasure.

Ы is a letter. It's a vowel, sort of like the i in bit, but not really. Its a special Russian sound.
Ь is a soft sign, it means the consonant before it is soft (palatised). It is transliterated as an apostrophe '
Ъ is a hard sign (means the consonant before is hard (unpalatised). It is transliterated as "

Chas (Час) means hour
Kak dela? (Как дела?) means How are you?
Ty (Ты) means You (informal / singular).

why cant I say for how are you

Kak Ty?

what about words like,these are russian words(ill get more when i install the language)

OT
А
у=I?
тебя
СПИД,
и=and?
значит
мы
умрём
6bIHe

other questions

why is jared used by the letter "и" instead of й?
so it looks like иaPeд

dont this "й" mean I,Y,J
and this и mean i?

why is r=g but is used in word that use "H" sounds?

Как дела = How are you

Как ты = like you

OT = from (depends on use)
А = but
и = and

Pronouns (Nomnitive form)
я = I
ты = you (familiar singular)
он = he or it
она = she or it
мы = we
вы = you (polite or plural)
они = they

тебя = you (genitive form of ты)
значит = so, then or well then
умрём = we die (from the word умереть)

6bIHe = ? I don't know this word
СПИД = ? I don't know this word

й when combined with a vowel adds a short i sound to the vowel, I dont think it has a sound of its own

и sounds like "ee" as in the English word seed

г sounds like the English "g" in most cases
г sounds like an English "v" when used in genitive endings

I would spell Jared = Жаред
иаред would sound something like eeared

You can say "как ты" for how are you.

You can also say

Как делишки
Как ты поживаешь
как сам
как идут твои дела?

Can you say Как ты?

Sir Krist, I presume you are asking what my sig means:

А у тебя СПИД, и значит мы умрём.
But you have AIDS, and that means we'll die.

A = but/and
у тебя CПИД = you have AIDS (lieterally: By you is AIDS)
и = and
мы = we
умрём = we will die.

why is r=g but is used in word that use "H" sounds?
I don't know what you are talking about here?
r does not equal G.

The letter J is pronounced as the english Y in most languages.
E.g. in German, the name Jan is pronounced "yan".
So Й can be transliterated as J, but not usually for English.
Russian has no letter for the English J sound, so it uses the combination Дж. Jared would be spelt Джэрад.
You may say why use Э instead of A? It's because the Э is actually closer to the American English sound man, pan. Russian A is too open for these sounds. E.g. Джарад would aound like Jar-rаd.

I met a woman in Odessa whoes name was Жанна = Janna
That is why I thought Jared would be spelled as Жаред

But now that I think about it Джордж Буш = George Bush

When English is transliterated to Russian they spell things phonetically.

I don't agree at all about that. э is a much better transcription of e as in "bed" or "Jared" than the Russian "а", therefore I prefer Джарэд to Джэрад. They will both be wrong, because as you mentioned, the first vowel phoneme will not be rendered correctly, but the former option will be much better.
The Russians have no easy way of producing our "a" in pan and man, but э certainly isn't the solution to that problem. джеред is another option - perhaps you meant that. But no easy answer.

I say Jared (Ja-rudd) The u = the u in put, foot. Thus i use Russian a. Pizza Hut is transliterated as Хат.
I am British, this is how we say it. The e in Jared isn't pronounced the same as that in bed and red, not even by Americans.
Джерад sounds the same as Джэрад anyway, because Ж is hard. So i conclude that my transliteration is Джерад. Or if you want to transliterate for the Irish pronounciation: Джаард

Э is the standard way of transliterating the vowel in pan and man.
E.g. the Russian word Бизнесмэн = Buissnessman. Batman is Бэтмэн or something.
The name Andrew is often written. Эндру
If you want to put on a Russian accent when speaking English. for Pan, and Man, say пэн мэн

IMHO: I still think Жарэд or Жаред sound the best.
I pronounce it Jar-red as in the color RED. NOT Ja-rudd.
Also, I don't think there should be a leading д.
Anyways, here are some examples
жакет = jacket
жаргон = jargon
жасмин = jasmine

you are missing the point. In English Jared, is pronounced with a J, not a Zh. You are supposed to write how it is pronounced. J in french sounds like Ж. But we are trying to convey the English pronunciation, in which case it starts with a Дж. Kwatts, Дж is how Russians write English J. If you say it quick enough, it even sounds like it. But anyway, alot of Russians recognise it as the foreign sound. Jazz = Джаз.
The words you listed are Frenchified. James in russian is Джеймс
To write the English J sound in Russian you use Дж. I'm sure if you realy listen to the way you say Jared you will see you don't actually say red. The unstressed syllable is reduced. If you say Ja, and then the word red, it just sound wrong. Trust me Джерад or Джарад in the best way to write it.

J in french sounds like Ж

The French "j" actually sounds much softer. Compare "j'aime", "живу".

Yes, that's why I said sound like, not "sounds the same as".

The fact is, and I'm sure you'll agree Pravit, that for an the name Jared in English, you wouldn't spell it with a Ж but with a Дж.

Иосеб Джугашвили - Ioseb Jugashvili. The Georgian language has a similar J sound to English. Thus, when Russians write Georgian names with this J sound, they write Дж.

Yep yep, totally agree with "дж" spelling. Just staying true to my nitpicking roots, old TATY.

I do the same when people say that Russian Ш is English sh. It's almost the same, but it is actually different.
