На фото не чайная чашка, а ночной горшок! Как говорится, в человеке все должно быть прекрасно, куда ни глянь! В 18 веке появились особые дамские утки “бурдалу”. Выполнены они были так, что впору спутать со столовой посудой. И в одном из источников есть упоминание “дерзкий соусник” (вот тут я слегка орнула). Погуглите картину Француза Буше “La toilette intime”. Там изображен такой “соусник” во время использования по своему прямому назначению. #chamberpot #eye #ночнойгоршок (at Музей Мир Воды)
На песковитој падини нишу се тује; Под њима бујни мравињаци, Често, овуда, нечујни кораци Глувих ноћи до колена газе, А који пут, кад дуну олује, Зеленом долином, све до планинског ждрела, Глас неке кобне птице зору помрачује.
Неки крупан, црвени цвет Расте испод мрких сеника, Као кандила шумском богу. Са тог сам брега, давно, одлутао у свет, Те не знам дал и још у којој брези живи слика Мог прозеблог детињства, Светачких и босих ногу?…
An eagle flew across the sea, lowered his wing and plugged the spring. A rooster sat on a stone, flapping his wings: black stone, you don’t move, Christian blood, you stop for born, prayerful, baptised [Name].
Everyone who’s used a word processor knows there are about a million different fonts to choose from. Some fonts–or typefaces–are related to the modern Roman alphabet we use today, but are barely recognizable as being in the same family. The Sütterlinschrift (top), developed in Prussia during the early 1910s and used until it was banished by the Nazi party in the 40s, is a sibling to the alphabet you’re reading now, however difficult it appears to read.
Also related to the Roman alphabet is the family of Cyrillic scripts (bottom), though it’s a child of Greek rather than Latin; if Sütterlin is Roman type’s sister, then Cyrillic is its second cousin. Some of the Cyrillic alphabets’ letters, like А and Е, are identical to their Roman equivalents, but some like Д (D) and Л (L) are more like their Greek parents.
Yes!! I used the app “Russian Alphabet”, it’s really simple but it was really useful to me. I learnt the whole Cyrillic alphabet in one night, thanks to the app. By the way, do it in the night. You can memorize better if you review anything before sleeping!
You have to practice it, there’s no other way! You can develop your own useful pneumonics to help, because you’re inevitably going to confuse В/Б П/Р etc. for a while. Maybe try learning to write Russian cursive as well? Russians only write in cursive, and there are some differences between print and cursive. It could help you solidify it more, maybe? And I hate to say this, but learning the alphabet will be the easiest part with Russian. It will become natural eventually, I promise! Удачи!!!
look up “sesame street russian alphabet”. It’s addictive. also, the memrise course is great, and this website has a super simple way to learn the alphabet without overthinking it.
When I first learned the the sounds of each letter, I spent a lot of time writing English words with Cyrillic letters the best I could just to reinforce my understanding of each of the sounds Also I would open the lyrics to slow Russian songs and read them slowly over and over again, and then listen to the song Might be worth downloading a Russian keyboard onto your computer and then buying a pack of Cyrillic letter stickers to your keyboard! Makes practicing a whole lot easier, good luck
The way I learned Cyrillic was to write each letter 10 (or possibly more) times, and repeat the sound each letter makes every time I wrote the said letter. I also solidified my mastery of Cyrillic by learning basic spelling rules early on (when to pronounce ‘o’ as ‘a’ etc.) and incorporating those spelling rules when trying to spell out words and sentences :)
Having learned the phonemic alphabet I got some assistance as I could write down the exact sound I needed to remember without possibly confusing it for Latin lettering So although it means learning more the phonemic alphabet could help
Divide the letters into groups: -letters that sound the same and look the same as your own alphabet-letters that look the same but sound different than those in your native alphabet-letters that look new/different but carry the same sounds as your native alphabet-letters that can’t be found or seen in your native alphabet Once you identify which letters belong to these groups, practice the letters in that order (above) Also, start writing words you already know using the Cyrillic alphabet….
