    "Learning Russian" in Russian.

    So how do I say "I am learning Russian"? Can I please have the Cyrillic and Latin spelling?

    Re: "Learning Russian" in Russian.

    Hey thanks. Can you put that in the latin alphabet so I can try to pronounce it?

    I think the first letter you put is Ya or I and the last is Russian. or um Russki. Not sure how to put the second word into the latin alphabet.

    Dear melchieor, before learning sentences like "I am learning Russian" in Russian or others you should learn the Cyrillic alphabet first.
    Unfortunately, many learners think it's possible to learn Russian without learning the alphabet. That's a big mistake.

    P.S. I suggest you read this thread: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=17705
    In Russian, all nationalities and their corresponding languages start with a lower-case letter.

    Russian letters have no English pronunciation, to read them one has to learn how to pronounce Russian sounds.

    Ну, во-первых, совсем не так.
    А во-вторых, может, не стоит оказывать человеку медвежью услугу? Пусть учит алфавит.
