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.
• The pronunciation stays the same after ж, ш, щ, ч, but spelling always uses и.

Master this rule first, and plurals and adjective endings become predictable.

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.
• 2 signs: ь (soft sign) and ъ (hard sign) produce no sound alone but modify pronunciation.

Watch out for false friends: Russian Р sounds like English "r", not "p"; Russian С sounds like "s", not "c".
