Russian spelling rule #1 states that ы never follows г, к, х, ж, ш, щ, or ч, and и takes its place.

You'll encounter this rule in plurals and adjectives.

• When forming plurals after these seven letters, use -и: книга → книги.
• After х, adjectives take -ий: hence тихий (quiet), never тыхый.
• Spelling trumps sound: write и after ж, ш, щ, ч regardless of pronunciation.

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

The average price of a Russian lesson in Ryde is around £20/h.

• Student level: complete beginners or advanced conversation practice affect pricing.
• Tutor background: university lecturers and professional interpreters command higher fees.

Cyrillic script for Russian has exactly 33 letters, organised into consonants, vowels, and two silent markers.

The structure works like this:

• Consonants (21): many resemble English letters (м, т, к) while others are unique (ж, ш, щ, ц).
• 10 vowel letters form pairs: а/я, у/ю, о/ё, ы/и, э/е, where the second softens consonants.
• Two modifier signs: the soft sign (ь) adds palatalisation, and the hard sign (ъ) prevents it.

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