The 7-letter rule is a core Russian spelling principle: after г, к, х, ж, ш, щ, and ч, you must write и instead of ы.

You'll encounter this rule in plurals and adjectives.

• The plural of книга is книги, since г requires и.
• After х, adjectives take -ий: hence тихий (quiet), never тыхый.
• The pronunciation stays the same after ж, ш, щ, ч, but spelling always uses и.

Learning this rule early helps you avoid common spelling mistakes in Russian.

Expect to pay approximately £18/h for Russian tuition in Luton.

Prices can shift based on:

• Difficulty level: introductory Cyrillic or business Russian change the rate.
• Tutor background: university lecturers and professional interpreters command higher fees.
• Lesson length and frequency: weekly sessions or intensive courses offer different value.
• Lesson format: online lessons, home visits, or meeting at the tutor's place.

Many tutors offer discounts for booking multiple lessons, which reduces the hourly cost.

The Russian alphabet contains 33 Cyrillic letters: 21 consonants, 10 vowels, and 2 special signs.

The structure works like this:

• 21 consonant letters include familiar shapes like в and н, plus distinctly Russian ones like ж and щ.
• 10 vowel letters form pairs: а/я, у/ю, о/ё, ы/и, э/е, where the second softens consonants.
• 2 signs: ь (soft sign) and ъ (hard sign) produce no sound alone but modify pronunciation.

Some letters look identical to Latin ones but sound different: Р is "r", С is "s", Н is "n".
