Learn to read Russian with this free deck, complete with native recorded audio!
We call it the "phonetic writing system deck" and not "alphabet" deck since we teach things a little differently. Instead of learning the letters and what sounds they make, we go the other direction. We look at the different sounds of the language and how you can write them. This means that some letters or combinations of letters can represent several sounds, or vice versa!
This deck is meant to be used with the Refold method of language learning. It assumes that you are immersing in media and doing other learning activities. This deck is only going to help you become comfortable with the language's method of writing sounds.
