For a moment I was so happy that the Russian alphabet wasn't a mystery for me any more. Then my friend who knows Russian says it's very important that I learn the cursive since basically that's how most people hand write in Russian. Now I feel like a 6-year-old kid learning how to write!

[@russianlessons]

haha, yes the written form is hard. You can print Russian, and learn this a little later if it's easier. You can see why we needed to create a whole new video for this. Although if you are travelling in Russia it is useful to know some basic handwriting, because you will see some shop-signs that are printed in script.

I agree whole-heartedly that Russian is a beautiful language. Also, Cyrillic is interesting because the sound of the letter corresponds to the shape of the letter which corresponds the shape that our chest, throat, tongue, and mouth make while making the sounds and even includes timing of such biological movements. I think I shall make a video to elucidate more clearly at some time in the future.

Most of these aren't written like this in daily life. Usually 7-9 year old children write like this. I almost never seen an adult to write this way, unlike he is a teacher or something. Sometimes people write same letters in the same sentence differentely. And if you though english doctors handwriting is bad wait till you see russian ones :)

A year ago I started to learn russian and 3-4 months ago I looked at cursive and dont understand what people find so hard about it. I looked at it once and can write it, and yes of course I make mistakes. I only have problems with a letter followed by Л because you pretty much always have to set a small spike in between Л and the letter in front and thats quite confusing.

Is this Russian cursive? If so, is it acceptable to write in block letters (non-cursive) in the Russian language? Follow-up question, if writing in block letters is okay, then is there a video demonstrating that?

[@russianlessons]

Yes, this is Russian cursive. This is how handwriting might be taught in school. You will see this style on some signs, so it is useful to be able to read it a little. Especially the unusual letters. If you are learning Russian for travel, you don't need to worry too much about writing like this. It is probably enough to read. It's more important to learn to words. If you are travelling you can just print Russian if you need to write something down. If you live in Russia it might be useful to learn to handwrite. In summary, speaking is really your first priority. Sorry, we don't have a video on printing Russian block letters.

[@JayLKing]

Hi there, hosts of this channel:) I am a 17 year old student from Switzerland who has started to learn Russian half a year ago. I have been using several sources to learn the language amongst them is the language learning app Babbel which has helped me quite a lot to get started. Now I am struggling to find adequate texts or literature from which to learn. And I was wondering whether you, dear hosts, knew some material I could use... I do not mind what kind of text it is even children's tales would be a very nice start for getting to know the Russian culture. I would like to ask another thing: How can I learn the rather difficult Russian grammar best? Is there a way to easily understand and apply it?

I know "Имя" means "name," but I have no idea what this "Dama" means. I just googled the word and got the definitions of it, but neither "lady" or "queen" seem right in the context.

[@Pippin_Took_It]

Is this cursive script?

[@hyy2952]

can i not learn the handwriting version just the printed ones....

[@russianlessons]

Hi, yes kind of. You can learn a lot of Russian just by using print. Most signs on streets and on public transport are all in print. And you can of course write in print. After you know learn around 300-400 words of Russian, it will be a good time to come back and learn handwriting. Occasionally informal signs are written in script, or italics, such as shop signs. So, it's good to have a basic understanding at least of how to read such signs, even if you cant write in script. In summary, learning handwriting is not your first priority. I imagine it will also be easier after you are already comfortable with the basics of the language. Knowing what letters and sounds are commonly used together will make reading handwriting easier. We created this video because it is a topic that is hard to learn from the Internet or books, it needs to be animated. It will be useful for people spending longer periods in Russia who may need to occasionally read Russian handwriting.
