Russian gives you a new alphabet and word endings that carry a lot of meaning. Loquus lets you approach both through lessons, audio, and reference tools. Take time to recognize a written word, listen to its stress, and look at how it changes in a sentence.
Some Cyrillic letters resemble Latin letters but represent different sounds. Use the alphabet reference and audio to build a connection between each symbol and its sound. When a word feels familiar, check it in the Dictionary rather than relying only on how the letters look.
02
Listen for the stressed syllable
Stress is an important part of a Russian word and is not usually marked in everyday writing. Listen to available word and example audio while reading. Repeat the whole word, then play it again in a phrase to hear it as part of connected speech.
03
Find the reason for an ending
Russian noun, adjective, and verb forms change with their role in a sentence. Grammar Center offers explanations and examples to help you investigate a form you encounter. Compare available related forms in the Dictionary, keeping the meaning of the sentence in view as you review.
