Thread: Would you tell me Russian media

Привет! Я из японии.

Would you tell me the Russian media which is well known and perhaps the headquarter is in Siberia?

I know Interfax but I can't remind of the other media that I want to know...Пожалуйста.

Do you mean "mass media"?
I think, in Siberia there are only the regional mass media, so they are not well known... Hm, maybe I'm wrong.

Итар-Тасс is very well known
http://www.itar-tass.com/

РИА-Новости is well known
http://www.rian.ru/

IMA-Press is well known
http://www.ima-press.ru/

Oh, Сибирское агентство новостей! (especially for you! )
http://sibnovosti.ru/


P.S. Just ask Google about "агентство новостей"

Да да, mass-media or media..whatever.

Спасибо большое, not only for telling me but adding the links.

The media I wanted to know is РИА-Новости. And this webpage has the Japanese version! You would pronounce Новости as Navosti but in Japanese, this is called like..Norbosti so I think I'm confused.

I'll take a look at other webpages, too

You would pronounce Новости as Navosti

NO! We pronounce Новости as Novasti.

Strictly speaking, RIA "Novosti" is a news agency (as well, as "Interfax").
And its proper name ("Novosti", means "News") must be pronounced "nOv*sti" (with stress on O and * for obscure sound between A and O).

But how it can sound as "Norbosti"? A mystery.

Oh, Спасибо болешое Оля и Scorpio!

We say this like, "Но (nor) босчи"

We have the sound "чи" orginally in Japanese also, but when we use "ти", this is only for the Western sound "ty" or "ti", etc. So чи is used instead of ти, depending on case.
And we don't have V sound..only B.

I hope this sounds funny to you all!!

You are welcome

So why you can't pronounce the first syllable just "Noh..." (without "r")?

mm..yes actually we say as "Noh".

I didn't know if you use "h" for long vowels^^
